PavMaster 414 Tow Type Paver

The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT), specifically the Southeast District, is conducting a Single Feasible Source (SFS) procurement for a PavMaster 414 Tow Type Paver. The solicitation, identified as SFS605SE19000018, is specifically targeting JMG Equipment Company of Holden, Missouri, as the sole distributor of this specialized paving equipment. The procurement covers Jefferson County and Independence City, with a contract period running from the Notice to Proceed through June 30, 2019, and the option for three additional one-year renewals. The solicitation period is from July 3, 2018, to July 10, 2018, at 3:00 PM CDT, during which vendors can submit responses either electronically through MissouriBUYS or via hard copy. MoDOT will utilize this supplier as needed during the contract period, with the vendor required to submit individual pricing proposals for materials or services when requested. Delivery will be made to various locations throughout MoDOT's Southeast District, with Free On Board Destination terms and Net 30 Days payment terms.

The solicitation does not specify any specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. No incumbent vendors other than JMG Equipment Company are mentioned, and the procurement is justified based on the proprietary nature of the equipment and past procurement experience indicating a single distributor. The solicitation notes that MoDOT will monitor the market for potential developing competition. While no specific total contract value is provided, the procurement includes requirements for posting notices for purchases over $5,000 and additional advertising for purchases over $25,000. The justification for the single feasible source determination is based on the equipment being proprietary and only available from the manufacturer or a single distributor. The vendor will be responsible for submitting pricing proposals as needed, and the contract allows for flexibility in equipment acquisition throughout the specified contract period.
