Docks and Gangways

The Idaho Department of Fish & Game is conducting a Request for Quotes (RFQ135) for the procurement of docks and gangways. The solicitation specifically seeks qualified vendors to provide and install two primary configurations: one T-configuration dock and one I-configuration dock, along with two gangways. Detailed specifications include requirements for truss frames, dock-to-dock connections, gangway connections, floats, transition plates, handrails, and wood decking. Vendors must submit electronic responses via IPRO or email by October 23, 2023, with the award to be made to the most responsive and responsible vendor that best serves the State of Idaho's interests. The RFQ allows for brand name requirements with potential "equal" product alternatives subject to agency approval. Respondents must provide comprehensive pricing, delivery timelines, and demonstrate compliance with the technical specifications outlined in the administrative documents. The contract will be formalized through a Purchase Order issued from the state's eProcurement system, which will incorporate the RFQ, successful quote, and any agreed-upon contract requirements.

The solicitation does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent types. No incumbent vendors are identified in the provided documentation. The contract appears to have standard insurance requirements, including Commercial General Liability with a $1,000,000 per occurrence limit, Commercial Automobile Liability with a $1,000,000 per accident limit, and Workers Compensation with Employer's Liability limits of at least $1,000,000. The State of Idaho and the contracting agency must be named as additional insureds on liability policies. While specific budget ranges are not detailed, the procurement is localized to Camas County and involves specialized marine infrastructure. Vendors must provide insurance certificates prior to contract commencement and maintain coverage throughout the contract period. The contract terms include provisions for termination for cause, fiscal necessity, and convenience, with policies requiring insurers to be rated A-VII or better.
