New Vehicle Builds

The Nevada Department of Public Safety is seeking qualified vendors to submit bids for new vehicle builds through a formal procurement process. The solicitation was posted on May 14, 2026, with a deadline for quote submission on June 4, 2026. All equipment must be brand new only, with descriptive data and printed specifications required; used, refurbished, demo, prototype, or gray market equipment is not acceptable. Vendors must submit quotes through the NevadaEPro platform, completing all required tabs including general information, itemized pricing for each line item, vendor question responses, terms and conditions acceptance, and any attachment uploads. The bid opening date and time are specified in Pacific Standard Time, and vendors cannot submit quotes after the stated deadline. Evaluation will be conducted on a lowest responsible bidder basis, considering factors including location, quality, total cost of ownership, specification conformity, intended purposes, and delivery dates. The contract term is limited to two years initially, with potential annual extensions thereafter if conditions for extension are specified in the bid solicitation and deemed in the best interest of the State.

A five percent preference applies to Nevada-based businesses certifying that a majority of goods are produced in Nevada, and an additional five percent preference is available to local businesses owned and operated by veterans with service-connected disabilities for contracts valued between $50,000 and $500,000. Vendors must possess valid licenses and permits, comply with federal and state laws including OSHA standards and anti-discrimination provisions, and comply with the Israel boycott prohibition. Vendors delivering commodities directly to the State must obtain automobile liability insurance with combined single limits of $1,000,000 and must indemnify the State against patent infringement claims and broker disputes. Pricing must be submitted as an irrevocable offer for the contract term and any extensions, quoted as Free on Board (FOB) Destination with freight prepaid. Payment is expected within 30 to 45 days upon invoice receipt and agency approval. The specific award value and detailed line item quantities are not specified in the standard terms and conditions; these details would be contained within the individual bid solicitation accessible through the NevadaEPro platform.
