Quotations are due by April 29, 2026, at 2:00 PM CST and must be submitted via email to bids@cityofmadison.com. The City will evaluate bids based on cost, quality, warranty, delivery capability, past performance, and customer satisfaction, and reserves the right to award the contract to the responsive and responsible bidder whose bid is most advantageous, with multiple vendors potentially selected based on the need for multiple pickup locations. Bidders must complete and return Form A (Price Proposal) and Form B (Bidder Information) with their responses.

The City of Madison maintains a local vendor preference policy that grants scoring preference to registered local suppliers, with registration required by the bid due date of April 29, 2026. Quotations may not be withdrawn for 90 days following the due date, or as otherwise specified by law. Deliveries will be made to various locations throughout Madison. No specific incumbent vendors, current contractors, or budget ranges are identified in the RFQ documentation. No set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or other specialized vendor categories are mentioned. Bidders should note that responsive and responsible status will be a critical component of the evaluation process, and those interested in local vendor preference scoring must ensure timely registration prior to the submission deadline.
