Commercial Kitchen Equipment

Laramie County School District Number One is seeking competitive sealed bids for specialized commercial kitchen equipment through Bid No. 2362006, specifically targeting two precise pieces of equipment: a full-size bakery depth electric convection oven (double stack Blodgett Zephaire-200-E Double) and an oven/proofer combination unit (Nu-Vu QB-3/9). The procurement requires vendors to provide equipment that meets specific electrical requirements, NSF-7 approval standards, and Department of Agriculture, Federal, and State law regulations. Sealed bids are due by August 30, 2022, at 9:00 a.m., with submission options including electronic submission via email or BidNet, or physical delivery to the Purchasing Administrator at 2810 House Avenue, Room 118, in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Drop-ship delivery is requested to the Central Warehouse at 316 S. Lexington Avenue. The district will evaluate bids with the right to reject any or all submissions, ultimately awarding to the bid that best serves the school district's interests. No alternate products will be accepted due to existing space and power constraints.

The procurement includes a Wyoming vendor preference, potentially providing preferential treatment of up to 5% for resident bidders. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned, the bid appears open to qualified vendors who can meet the stringent equipment specifications. The procurement does not list incumbent vendors or require integration with existing infrastructure beyond the specified electrical and space requirements. Although a precise budget range is not disclosed, the bid suggests a focused procurement for two specific kitchen equipment units with precise manufacturer and model specifications. The competitive sealed bid process indicates the district is seeking competitive pricing while maintaining strict equipment standards to ensure compatibility with their existing kitchen infrastructure.
