District 2 Underbridge Inspection Vehicle Exchange

The State of Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is seeking to exchange two used Peterbilt bridge inspection vehicles for new equipment of equivalent value. The Department possesses titles to the vehicles, a 2011 Peterbilt 367 truck with 50,485 miles and a 2011 Peterbilt 367 truck with 45,904 miles, both equipped with Aspen Aerial Underbridge Inspector Platforms. The Department requires one 2024 Ford F-750 with L65 Lift and one 2023 Ford F550 Super Cab with Versalift as replacement equipment. No funds will be exchanged; instead, equipment titles will be transferred between the Department and the successful Proposer. Proposals are due by April 22, 2024 at 2:00 PM, with public openings on April 22 and April 25, 2024. The successful Proposer must transfer ownership/titles of the proposed equipment to the Department within 120 days of contract execution. The contract term is for the duration required to complete the exchange, with no monetary compensation.

The Department will evaluate technical proposals worth 85 points and price proposals worth 15 points to determine the award. There are no specific diversity or small business set-aside requirements, but the Department encourages such participation. The exchange is subject to Department of Management Services approval pursuant to Florida Statutes. The Department has not listed any incumbent vendors or current contractors, and there is no information provided about existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The value of the exchange is not specified.
