PSP Media Station Snow Removal

The Pennsylvania State Police, specifically Troop K Media Station, is seeking a snow removal services contract for sidewalks, driveways, and parking areas across multiple jurisdictions including Dauphin County, Delaware County, Harveys Lake Borough, and Masontown Borough. The procurement is an on-call contract for snow removal and deicing services, with a performance period from November 1, 2016, through June 30, 2021. Vendors must provide all necessary labor, materials, and equipment to perform snow removal and granular deicing services as specified in the bid documentation. The contract involves quantified services based on estimated snow removal hours, tons, and bags of deicing material, with a specific line item for deicing material application during icing events when plowing is not required. Bidders must complete and submit a mandatory Proof of Visit form signed by the Station Commander or designee, which must be mailed or faxed to the procurement contact by the bid opening date of September 21, 2016. Electronic bid submissions are the only acceptable method of response, and all interested vendors must be registered on the Pennsylvania Supplier Portal to participate.

This bid is exclusively set aside for small businesses, with a mandatory self-certification requirement prior to the bid opening date. Vendors must obtain a small business certificate through www.smallbusiness.pa.gov, and failure to do so by the bid opening date will result in the bid being deemed unresponsive and automatically disqualified. Potential bidders must register on the Pennsylvania Supplier Portal (www.pasupplierportal.state.pa.us) to obtain a vendor number and submit an online bid. The procurement contact is Kathleen Kulp from the PSP Procurement & Supply Division, located at 1800 Elmerton Ave, Harrisburg, PA 17110, with contact information including phone (717-705-5951) and fax (717-214-3383). While specific award values are not explicitly stated, the multi-year contract duration and comprehensive snow removal requirements suggest a potentially significant contract opportunity for qualified small businesses in the specified jurisdictions.
