Purchase of Sensmart 2100 Smart Sensor - 214774

Dallas County and the City of Dallas are seeking to procure Sensmart 2100 Smart Sensors through an informal solicitation process, with bids due on January 13, 2026. The procurement is specifically for the purchase of new, unopened smart sensors to be delivered to 405 Long Creek Rd, with all items considered FOB delivery site. Vendors are required to bid online through the Bonfire Hub portal and must ensure all products meet minimum specifications as outlined in the solicitation. No alternative or substitute products will be accepted, and all items must be in original packaging. The procurement process mandates that bidders price items by including freight costs, and any products not meeting the specified requirements will be rejected and returned to the vendor at their expense.

The solicitation appears to have no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, but does include strict compliance requirements around conflict of interest disclosures as mandated by Chapter 176 of the Texas Local Government Code. Vendors must complete and submit a Conflict of Interest Questionnaire (Form CIQ) within seven business days of becoming aware of any reportable relationships. The City of Dallas reserves the right to disqualify vendors for various reasons, including history of fraudulent claims, default on previous contracts, financial instability, or outstanding unpaid liabilities. While specific budget ranges are not detailed, vendors must provide current insurance certificates showing general liability and workers' compensation coverage prior to purchase order release. The contract terms indicate that prices will be considered firm for thirty days after quote submission, with potential for extension by written agreement.
