Powered Track Wheelchairs with Accessories

The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department State Parks Division is requesting bids on five powered track wheelchairs with accessories under IFB 802-26-81094, with bids due July 16, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. Central Time. The solicitation references the Action Trackchair Axis 40 as the primary example but permits equivalent competing products that meet stated specifications.

The scope includes five wheelchairs with 23 specified accessories including attendant controls, seat extensions, fishing rod holders, gun scabbards, and snow plow kits. All equipment must be new, unused, manufacturer-warranted, and ready for operation upon delivery. Minimum performance specifications include a 300-pound weight capacity, 495-pound device weight, 7-mile battery range, zero turn radius, and 4 miles per hour maximum speed.

Delivery must occur at TPWD State Parks Division facilities at 4200 Smith School Road, Building D, Austin, Texas 78744. Vendors must specify delivery timeframes in calendar days and arrange delivery so TPWD does not unload fully assembled equipment; shipping, handling, fuel surcharges, and delivery fees are included in unit pricing. Pricing is quoted per unit on an FOB destination basis, with unit prices governing in case of extension errors.

Award will be made on an all-or-none basis to a single respondent. TPWD reserves the right to use best value evaluation criteria including lowest price, ability and qualifications, delivery schedule, past performance, life cycle costs, and installation costs. The agency may increase or decrease quantities prior to award based on bid results and budget constraints. Responses are binding for sixty business days from bid due date. Service-disabled veteran-owned businesses and other statutory preference categories may claim preferences under Texas Government Code Title 34 TAC Rule 20.306 if they qualify. Payment is made within 30 days of invoice receipt and acceptance; invoices must include the contractor's Texas Identification Number, contract/purchase order number, and itemized descriptions with unit and extended prices.
