OHSEP - 2026 MV607 SBA (MV607) equal to or greater than

The Webster Parish Police Jury is soliciting sealed bids for the procurement of a 2026 MV607 SBA (MV607) truck, specifically for the Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness (OHSEP) in Louisiana. The detailed bid specifications require a 4x2 axle configuration truck with a Cummins B6.7 300HP diesel engine, Allison 2500 RDS transmission, and a day cab configuration. The vehicle must have a 25,999 GVWR, 33,000 GCWR, and include specific components such as Meritor front and rear axles, Hankook tires, and an air brake system. The truck will be equipped with additional features including air conditioning, power windows, LED headlights, and a telematics device with a five-year data plan. The bid also requires a 16' steel flatbed with cab shield, stake pockets, winch track, sliding winches, and a receiver hitch. Bids will be received at the Webster Parish Police Jury office, located at 401 Main Street in Minden, Louisiana, until 2:00 PM local time on Wednesday, June 18, 2025, with bid opening and public reading to occur immediately thereafter. The procurement is scheduled for final approval during the Regular Meeting of the Webster Parish Police Jury on July 1, 2025.

The procurement appears to be open to all qualified vendors without specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The bid documents indicate that the Webster Parish Police Jury, as a tax-exempt governmental agency, reserves the right to reject any and all bids, waive informalities, and select the bid that best serves its interests. Importantly, the specified truck is not compliant with California Air Resources Board (CARB) emission standards and cannot be registered in California, effectively limiting its potential use to states outside of CA, MA, OR, NJ, NY, and WA. The vehicle comes with a standard 3-year unlimited miles warranty for the Cummins B6.7 engine. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated in the documents, vendors are required to provide a total purchase price and demonstrate service availability within a 60-mile radius of Minden, Louisiana. The procurement also requires comprehensive documentation, including an Equipment Specification Sheet detailing the truck's make and model number, and warranty documentation.
