About this opportunity

Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LACMTA) is requesting quotes for a belt-tension gauge for A/C systems under a set-aside for Metro-approved small business enterprises only, with quotes due October 19, 2026. This is a SBE-restricted procurement; only vendors certified as Metro-approved small businesses may respond.

The part specification is METRO P/N 188365, a gauge for belt tension A/C, with approved manufacturer New Flyer (MFR #500143). Substitution is not permitted. Quotes must include price, lead time, and part number at the header level of the solicitation; failure to provide all three elements renders the quote non-responsive.

LACMTA will select the quote offering best value based on price, lead time, and past performance. Delivery must include the purchase order number on the packing slip along with part number and quantity. Palletized deliveries to CMF (Central Maintenance Facility) must conform to 46×46×42 pallet size or face rejection. If delivery contains multiple pallets, each pallet must carry its own individual packing slip with the PO number.

Quotes must remain valid for 60 days. Questions or requests for approved equals must be submitted at least three business days prior to quote close (by October 16, 2026).
