About this opportunity
Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority is requesting quotes for gasket, hose, kit, and connecting rod components under a set-aside for Metro-approved Small Business Enterprises only, with quotes due September 8, 2026. This is a restricted procurement — only SBE-certified vendors are eligible to respond.
The scope covers four Cummins parts: cylinder head gasket (P/N 5529517), 90-degree elbow hose (P/N 5258625), head assembly kit (P/N 4089216), and connecting rod (P/N 5271843). No substitutions are permitted. All quotes must include price, lead time, and part number at the header level of the solicitation; failure to provide this information renders the quote non-responsive.
Award will be based on best value to Metro considering price, lead time, and past performance. Quotes must remain valid for 60 days. Delivery to the Central Maintenance Facility requires palletized shipments conforming to 46-by-46-by-42-inch pallet dimensions; non-conforming shipments will be rejected. Each pallet must include an individual packing slip listing the purchase order number, part number, and quantity.
Questions or requests for approved equals must be submitted at least three business days prior to close of solicitation, by September 5, 2026.
