Light-Duty Tires, Wheels, & Related Services

Douglas County Government, through its Fleet Services department, is seeking bids for a comprehensive light-duty tire, wheel, and related services procurement via Invitation for Bid (IFB) #015-25. The solicitation targets vendors capable of providing tire services for county-owned vehicles, with an initial contract period from May 2025 to December 31, 2026. Vendors must maintain a local office in the Metro Denver area and provide mobile tire services, including weekly check-ins and a 24-hour turnaround for non-stock tire orders. The county anticipates purchasing approximately 964 tires across various sizes, including specific models like P265/70R17 Goodyear Eagle Enforcer and LT245/75R17 BFG A/T K02 tires or equivalent alternatives. The bid response is due by April 23, 2025, at 3:00 PM, with the county reserving the option to renew the contract for four additional one-year periods. Pricing should align with cooperative agreements like Sourcewell and NASPO, and vendors must provide comprehensive written estimates including itemized tire descriptions, incidental charges, and delivery timeframes.

The procurement will be established as a Blanket Purchase Agreement, which authorizes but does not obligate the county to purchase a specific quantity of tires or services. While no specific set-aside designations or disadvantaged enterprise requirements are explicitly mentioned, vendors must provide proof of insurance and comply with federal, state, and local regulations. Invoicing will be processed via credit card or Net 30 terms. Though the exact budget range is not specified, the anticipated volume of approximately 964 tires suggests a substantial contract value. The solicitation does not indicate any incumbent vendors or specific technology integration requirements. Vendors will be evaluated based on their ability to meet the county's comprehensive tire service needs, including local presence, service capabilities, pricing alignment with cooperative agreements, and responsiveness to the county's specific vehicle tire requirements.
