The bid must include a complete set of replacement filters, operator and shop manuals covering all components and overhauling procedures, and electronic training media compatible with Windows 11 64-bit operating system.

Prospective bidders must be registered as a vendor with the State of Kansas and must request official invitation from the Procurement Officer at least 24 hours before bid closing. Bids must include a current Kansas Tax Clearance Certificate, Certification Regarding Immigration Reform and Control, Sexual Harassment Policy acknowledgment, Israel Boycott certification, and Covered Telecommunications Equipment certification.
