The City of Rosenberg, Texas, issued Invitation to Bid (ITB #2026-27B) for the purchase and installation of thirty-three (33) bullet-resistant windshields designed for 2021 or newer Chevrolet Tahoe PPV units. This procurement is funded in whole or in part through FEMA financial assistance and will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder whose bid conforms to all material terms and conditions. The project requires delivery and installation completion within 60 days of contract award, with coordination through the City of Rosenberg's Fleet Director to establish an approved installation schedule. Bidding was released on March 23, 2026, with a deadline for written questions on April 3, 2026, at 5:00 pm, and a bid submission deadline of April 9, 2026, at 2:00 pm through the City's OpenGov Procurement platform. Public bid opening will occur at City Hall Council Chamber located at 2110 4th Street, Rosenberg, Texas 77471. All pricing must be firm, all-inclusive, and free of price escalation clauses, with all tariffs, duties, surcharges, and trade-related costs incorporated into the bid price. The City is exempt from Texas sales tax and federal excise tax, which must not be included in submitted bids.

Award of the contract is contingent upon contractor compliance with federal law, regulations, executive orders, and all applicable FEMA policies, procedures, and prevailing wage requirements. Contractors whose contracts are valued at $100,000 or more and employ 10 or more full-time employees must complete anti-boycott verifications regarding firearm industries, energy companies, Israel, and foreign terrorist organizations, in addition to meeting equal employment opportunity standards, suspension and debarment regulations, and anti-lobbying certifications. The procurement documents do not specify set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, incumbent vendors, or particular organizational categories. No existing infrastructure or technology integration requirements are identified in the bid documents. The specific award value or budget range is not disclosed in the available procurement materials; however, given the procurement of thirty-three specialized windshields with installation services, the contract value is anticipated to exceed the $100,000 threshold triggering additional compliance requirements for qualified bidders.
