About this opportunity
The City of Pittsburgh's Office of Management and Budget, acting on behalf of the Bureau of Fire, is seeking bids for Fire Hose Mobile Racks through Invitation for Bid (IFB) #2023-IFB-164. The specific procurement involves acquiring 15 units of Groves/Ready Rack (Part Number: HC-2T-64FLB), a two-tier hose storage rack with fork truck mobilization and heavy-duty casters. The bid was released on June 20, 2023, with electronic submissions required through the ProcureNow portal by July 11, 2023, at 2:00 pm, with the bid opening scheduled for 3:00 pm the same day. The contract period will span from July 15, 2023, through June 30, 2025, with options for two one-year renewals. Bidders must provide unit costs for the racks and a lump sum for shipping, with all delivery expenses integrated into the bid pricing. The city will not accept separate shipping or handling fees, and the contract will be awarded to the lowest responsible bidder, with the city reserving the right to reject any or all bids and potentially extend the contract up to 90 days.
The procurement includes specific equal opportunity goals that require bidders to meet participation targets for minority-owned (18%), women-owned (7%), and veteran-owned (5%) businesses. Prospective vendors must submit several mandatory documents, including an EORC Participation Form, Statement of Affiliations, Vendor Contact Sheet, W9 Form, and demonstrate compliance with the city's terms and conditions. While no incumbent vendor is specified, bidders must show capability to provide the precise hose rack specifications and meet the comprehensive documentation requirements. Although a specific budget range is not explicitly stated, the procurement involves 15 units of specialized fire equipment, suggesting a potentially significant contract value. The city's evaluation will focus on compliance with technical specifications, pricing, and meeting the stated minority and disadvantaged business enterprise participation goals, with the ultimate selection based on determining the most responsible and responsive bidder.
