Ulster County's Department of General Services is seeking to procure fifty (50) Lenovo ThinkPad T16 Gen 3 laptops (Manufacturer Part Number: 21MQS08T00) through a Request for Bid (RFB) designated as RFB-UC25-068. The procurement requires specific technical specifications including an Intel Core Ultra 5 125U processor, 16GB DDR5-5600MHz memory, 256GB PCIe Gen4 SSD, Windows 11 Pro 64-bit, and associated display and connectivity features. Each laptop must be accompanied by a three-year Premier Support warranty, with delivery specified to 25 S Manor Ave, Kingston, NY 12401 via lift gate/ground-floor inside delivery. The bid is scheduled to be opened on October 9, 2025, at 3:00 P.M., with bidders required to submit sealed bids prior to that time. Evaluation criteria will focus on the lowest responsive and responsible bid, with the county reserving the right to purchase from New York State Contracts when available. Bidders must provide comprehensive documentation including references, organizational information, and various certifications such as non-collusion affidavits and compliance with the Iran Divestment Act.
The procurement appears to have no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, though it emphasizes sustainability requirements and adherence to GreenNY purchasing guidelines. The bid is a one-time purchase with no specified renewal options, suggesting a straightforward, single-transaction procurement. While no incumbent vendors are mentioned, the detailed technical specifications indicate a precise requirement for modern, high-performance laptop technology. The procurement does not explicitly state a total budget range, but given the specification of fifty laptops with advanced features and a three-year warranty, the potential award value could be substantial. Pricing must be submitted as net FOB and include all delivery costs, reflecting a comprehensive approach to the procurement that considers total cost of ownership beyond the base unit price.
