Pump Station Replacement Parts

The City of Rocky Mount Wastewater Treatment Division is requesting quotations for replacement pump parts compatible with existing Gorman-Rupp pump equipment at its wastewater treatment facility, with quotations due October 9, 2026 at 4:00 PM ET and written questions due October 1, 2026 at 2:00 PM ET.

An eligible local vendor preference under North Carolina statute allows local vendors within 5% or $25,000 (whichever is less) of the lowest non-local bid to match that price. All vendors must comply with North Carolina E-Verify requirements and certify non-debarment status.

The scope comprises 39 line items of pump components including impellers (3" to 10"), wear plates, mechanical seals, oil seals, flappers, seal plates, bearings, o-rings, pivot caps, fill cover plate assemblies, shim sets, and super-T components with spools. All parts must be original equipment manufacturer Gorman-Rupp components or approved equivalents that meet or exceed manufacturer specifications. Parts must be new, unused, and free from defects; used, refurbished, or reconditioned items will not be accepted. Vendors proposing equivalent products must identify the manufacturer, model, and part number with documentation demonstrating compatibility.

The City intends to award to a single vendor capable of supplying all listed parts. Partial quotations will be considered non-responsive. Vendors must provide firm delivery commitments and clearly identify any items subject to extended manufacturer lead times or backorders. All parts shall be delivered to 3031 Treatment Plant Road, Rocky Mount, NC 27801. Freight and delivery charges must be included in quoted pricing. Award will be made to the lowest responsible, responsive vendor under North Carolina General Statute 143-131, with consideration given to quality, performance, and delivery timeframes. Pricing shall remain firm for a minimum of 30 days from the quotation due date. Payment terms are Net 30 upon receipt of invoice and acceptance of goods.
