Dual Engine Six-Wheel Dustless Waterless Street Sweepers with Belt Conveyor PM 10 Compliant

The State of Nevada Purchasing Division, acting on behalf of the Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT), is seeking competitive bids for Dual Engine Six-Wheel Dustless Waterless Street Sweepers with Belt Conveyor PM 10 Compliant equipment. This procurement is strictly for NEW equipment, with explicit rejection of used, refurbished, demo, prototype, or gray market vehicles. The street sweepers must meet rigorous technical specifications, including operation at altitudes up to 9,000 feet, road speeds of 65 MPH, and PM-10 certification from the South Coast Air Quality Management District. Critical deliverables include complete pre-delivery service, factory specification confirmation, and comprehensive training (four hours of mechanical and operator training in Reno, Carson City, and Las Vegas for 5-50 employees). The solicitation requires vendors to provide detailed compliance documentation, with any specification exceptions to be noted on a separate document uploaded to NevadaEPro. The bid is posted on April 21, 2025, with responses due by May 14, 2025, and requires vendors to comply with Nevada Revised Statutes, Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, and EPA Emission Control Standards.

The procurement has several specific requirements that may limit potential bidders, including mandatory use of a licensed Nevada vehicle dealer for delivery and requirement of manufacturer-authorized service and repair centers within Nevada. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned, the state does offer a 5% quote preference for Nevada-based businesses. Vendors must provide comprehensive insurance, including automobile liability with a combined single limit of $1,000,000, and meet Energy Star standards where applicable. The contract terms allow for potential two-year awards with possible annual extensions. Though a specific budget range is not detailed, the procurement is for complex, specialized street sweeping equipment with extensive technical requirements. Vendors must submit detailed documentation including descriptive data, printed specifications, Dealers Report of Sale (DRS), or Manufacturers Statement of Origin (MSO), with strict penalties for non-compliance, including potential removal from the bidder's list for pricing errors or incomplete submissions.
