Hammers, tape measures, and levels, annual estimated quantities

The Road Commission for Oakland County (RCOC) is seeking quotes for an eight-month firm-fixed price blanket order for hammers, tape measures, and levels through Request for Quote (RFQ) No. 6830. The procurement requires suppliers to submit detailed quotes via the Michigan Inter-governmental Trade Network (MITN) website, with mandatory inclusion of manufacturer names, part numbers, and product detail sheets. Quotes are due on Wednesday, February 5, 2025, at 10:00 a.m., with the contract term running from the date of award through February 28, 2026. Evaluation criteria will prioritize the lowest dollar amount and best delivery time, with unit price being the primary consideration. All goods must be delivered to the RCOC Warehouse in Waterford, Michigan, with deliveries accepted Monday through Friday between 8:00 a.m. and 2:30 p.m., excluding RCOC observed holidays. Suppliers must provide manufacturers' warranties, with a default one-year warranty if no specific length is specified.

The solicitation does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. RCOC reserves the right to terminate the agreement with 30 days' notice and can add or delete similar items during the contract term. The agency demonstrates an interest in environmentally friendly products and encourages suppliers to provide alternate quotes for such items. As a tax-exempt government agency, RCOC anticipates making payment approximately 30 days after receipt of goods and a correct invoice. While specific budget ranges are not detailed, the solicitation suggests this is an annual estimated quantity contract with potential for ongoing procurement. The commission's flexible approach allows for potential adjustments to the contract scope and provides vendors with an opportunity to showcase competitive pricing and product offerings for essential tools and equipment.
