Motorola Radios

Douglas County School District RE-1 (DCSD) has issued Request for Quote (RFQ) #020-25 for Motorola two-way radio procurement, seeking quotes for 382 Motorola SL300 403-470MHz 16-channel 2W analog/3W digital radios and 458 Motorola R2 403-470MHz 16-channel 4W radios, each including corresponding batteries and chargers. The solicitation was released on May 23, 2025, with quotes due by June 9, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. through Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing (BidNet). Evaluation criteria will comprehensively assess product quality, maintenance and service capabilities, delivery timelines, warranty provisions, company reputation, and historical performance. Suppliers must provide detailed shipping costs, estimated lead times, and demonstrate compliance with the State of Colorado's Digital Accessibility Standards (HB 21-1110). Additional mandatory requirements include completing criminal record checks for employees potentially working on DCSD property and signing a Certification Regarding Debarment and Suspension. DCSD reserves the right to select one or multiple suppliers and to reject quotes not meeting their specified requirements.

The procurement does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The contract terms will remain in effect for at least one year from the award date, with prices guaranteed to remain firm during that period. No incumbent vendors are identified in the documentation. While specific budget ranges are not detailed, the procurement involves 840 total radios across two distinct model specifications. The solicitation suggests flexibility in vendor selection, with DCSD maintaining broad discretion in awarding contracts based on comprehensive evaluation of submitted quotes. Potential vendors must carefully review all documentation and meet the technical, administrative, and compliance requirements outlined in the RFQ to be considered for potential radio system procurement.
