Haenni Portable Weigh In Motion Systems for MSP CVED

The Michigan State Police issued Request for Proposal No. 210000002307 for a one-time purchase of four Haenni Portable Weigh In Motion (PWIM) Systems for the Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Division. This brand-specific procurement requires delivery of Haenni WL 400 equipment packages, each consisting of two dynamic strip sensors rated at 20K per sensor, one interface box, two cables (2M and 10M lengths), one power supply, two CAN bus terminators, one EC200 software license, one aligning frame, four leveling mats in two different sizes, and one storage case. All equipment must be shipped F.O.B. destination to MSP's Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Division at 7150 Harris Drive, Dimondale, Michigan 48821, with delivery required within 30 days after receipt of order. The proposal deadline is 9:00 a.m. Eastern on July 22, 2021, with bidder questions due by 9:00 a.m. on July 13, 2021, and answers posted by July 15, 2021. The anticipated contract begin date is July 26, 2021. Bids must include the total system cost for all four systems with all associated charges, including shipping and handling prepaid and delivered to the destination, and the proposal is valid for a minimum of 90 calendar days from the RFP due date. Award will be made to the responsive and responsible bidder offering the lowest overall price, with standard manufacturer warranty applying to all equipment.

Bidders must be the equipment manufacturer or an authorized distributor, with verification at the State's discretion, which effectively restricts participation to Haenni and its authorized representatives. Bidders are encouraged to offer quick payment discounts and must certify their status as manufacturer or authorized distributor. The RFP does not specify disadvantaged enterprise set-asides or incumbent vendors. All contract activities are subject to the State's standard contract terms, federal provisions addendum if applicable, background check requirements for personnel accessing state facilities, and comprehensive insurance requirements including $1,000,000 commercial general liability coverage. The State reserves the right to disqualify late proposals, request clarification, issue notices of deficiency, and consider prior performance and economic impact to Michigan when making award decisions. Contracts valued at $250,000 or greater require State Administrative Board approval, suggesting the anticipated award value may fall within or exceed this threshold.
