MoDOT NW District - Purchase of New 47' Aerial and Chassis

The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) is conducting a Single Feasible Source (SFS) procurement for its Northwest District, seeking to purchase one new 47' VST 47 MHI Aerial unit mounted on a Ram 5500 4X4 Regular Cab with a 6.7L Cummins Turbo Diesel Engine Chassis. MoDOT has determined that Custom Truck One Source is the sole distributor capable of providing this specialized equipment, which is available from a single source for a limited time. The solicitation (SFS605CO24002014) is open from April 10, 2024, to April 16, 2024, at 2:00 PM CDT, with all responses required to be submitted electronically through the MissouriBUYS Statewide eProcurement System. Evaluation criteria will focus on pricing, with the award to be made to the lowest and best responsive bidder that meets all mandatory specifications. The procurement follows Missouri's single feasible source regulations under 7 CSR 10-11.020, allowing for non-competitive procurement when supplies are uniquely available from a single distributor. Delivery terms are Free On Board Destination, with vendor-specified payment terms.

The solicitation encourages participation from Minority Business Enterprises (MBE) and Women Business Enterprises (WBE), with a target of 10% MBE and 5% WBE participation through subcontractors, suppliers, or joint ventures. Vendors must comply with the Domestic Products Procurement Act, which provides a 10% price preference for goods manufactured or produced in the United States for purchases over $25,000. Additional compliance requirements include the Anti-Discrimination Against Israel Act Certification and registration with the Missouri Secretary of State and Department of Revenue. While the total estimated value of the purchase is not explicitly stated, this is a one-time purchase for a specialized piece of equipment for MoDOT's Northwest District. Potential vendors are invited to provide information demonstrating their ability to supply the required commodities, though MoDOT reserves the right to maintain its single feasible source determination. The procurement contact is Ryan Reed at the MoDOT Jefferson City office, who can provide additional information about the solicitation.
