Hunter Brand Alignment Rack for Lee Co ATC

The Commonwealth of Kentucky, Department of Education, issued a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for the procurement of a Hunter Brand Alignment Rack specifically for Lee County Area Technology Center. The solicitation seeks one unit of a Pronto III Aligner featuring a compact mobile cabinet, 24" LCD flat panel display, and multi-bay, cabinet-mounted, 2-camera ultra HD vision technology sensors, along with ProAlign software, wireless remote control, adjustment tools (WinToe Shim-Select II, CAMM), premium color printer, and four conventional self-centering wheel clamps. The equipment must be delivered and installed at 960 Center Street, Beattyville, Kentucky 41311 by October 30, 2021. Quotations must be submitted electronically to Josh Rowe at Josh.rowe@education.ky.gov by 2:30 PM EST on September 22, 2021. The evaluation will be based on cost (90 points), warranty (5 points), and delivery (5 points), with award made to the lowest evaluated responsive and responsible best value offeror. Vendors must provide specific warranty periods in months and delivery timelines in calendar days, as vague terminology will result in non-responsive bids, and all pricing must include shipping, delivery, installation, and training costs with a minimum one-year warranty on all parts and labor.

Kentucky resident bidders may receive reciprocal preference, and qualified bidders including Kentucky Correctional Industries, Kentucky Industries for the Blind, and nonprofit agencies serving individuals with severe disabilities may receive additional preferences as defined in Kentucky Administrative Regulations. The Commonwealth will apply a 1% daily deduction from invoices for each day delivery is delayed beyond the contracted due date. Payment will be made within 30 working days of invoice receipt in accordance with Kentucky statutes, and vendors may be required to accept the Commonwealth Procurement Card (MasterCard) for payment. While no budget range or incumbent vendor information is specified in the solicitation, the total award value will depend on the quotes received and the evaluation of cost, warranty, and delivery factors.
