Purchase of Universal Input Panel Meter 90-240V - *211398

Dallas County and the City of Dallas Procurement Services are seeking to purchase Universal Input Panel Meters with 90-240V specifications through an informal solicitation (Bid #211398). The procurement requires new, unopened panel meters in original packaging, with strict requirements that no alternatives or substitutes will be accepted. Vendors must submit quotes online via the Bonfire Hub platform by September 10, 2025, with all items considered FOB delivery to 10011 Log Cabin Road, Dallas, TX 75253 at Yard #9. The city reserves the right to award the contract to the lowest responsive and responsible vendor, with the ability to reject any or all quotes. Pricing must include freight costs, and vendors must comply with city warranty requirements and demonstrate the ability to meet the technical specifications of the panel meters.

The solicitation does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. However, vendors must comply with the city's Conflict of Interest Policy under Chapter 176 of the Texas Local Government Code, which requires disclosure of potential conflicts of interest between vendors and city officers. Vendors must complete a Conflict of Interest Questionnaire (Form CIQ) and demonstrate non-discrimination practices. To be considered for the contract, vendors cannot have a history of excessive claims, financial instability, arrearage, or default on existing contracts. The city is exempt from federal excise taxes and state and local sales taxes, which should not be included in vendor quotes. While specific award value or budget range is not disclosed in the provided documentation, the procurement appears to be for a specific quantity of universal input panel meters to be purchased by the city.
