Mobile Aerial Equipment Maintenance and Repair

The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) is soliciting bids for a Mobile Aerial Equipment Maintenance and Repair contract (Solicitation No. BPM007037) to provide comprehensive maintenance services for approximately 40 pieces of mobile aerial equipment statewide. The contract will cover various equipment makes including Auto Crane, Altec, JLG, Terex, Elliott, Versa-Lift, Biljax, and Crown, with repairs primarily to be performed onsite at ADOT facilities and potentially offsite with prior approval. Key deliverables include providing all necessary labor, parts, and services meeting Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) guidelines, with a focus on minimizing equipment downtime. The solicitation requires contractors to submit detailed estimates, itemized invoices, and comply with specific insurance requirements, including $2,000,000 in commercial general liability coverage. The contract term is twelve months, with potential extension up to July 10th, 2029, and will be awarded based on evaluation criteria including vendor responsibility, responsiveness, past contract performance, and compliance with solicitation requirements. The solicitation was posted on August 11, 2025, with a proposal due date of September 18, 2025, and potential vendors must submit all questions through the Discussion Forum tab in the Arizona Procurement Portal (APP).

There are no specific set-aside designations or restrictions mentioned for disadvantaged enterprises in the solicitation documents. Contractors must comply with immigration law requirements and restrictions on offshore work. The pricing structure will be based on a discount from manufacturer price lists, with a mandatory 90-day warranty on all parts and repairs. While no incumbent vendors are explicitly identified, the solicitation emphasizes that many of the equipment units are considered "emergency response equipment" requiring priority maintenance and repair services. The specific budget range is not directly stated, but the comprehensive nature of the maintenance contract covering 40 pieces of specialized mobile aerial equipment suggests a significant potential contract value. Vendors will need to demonstrate technical capability to service a diverse range of mobile aerial equipment, with a focus on quick response times and high-quality repair services that minimize operational disruptions for ADOT's critical transportation infrastructure equipment.
