Purchase&installation of shallow-PIT truck scales at mira’s transfer stations

The Materials Innovation and Recycling Authority (MIRA) has issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) solicitation number 22-OE-006 seeking qualified firms to furnish, deliver, and replace shallow-pit truck scales at three transfer stations located in Essex, Torrington, and Watertown, Connecticut. The procurement specifically requires the replacement of 60-foot long by 10-foot wide shallow-pit-style truck scales at each of these locations, which includes comprehensive replacement of weigh bridges, load cells, and performing all necessary repairs or replacements to pit foundations and drainage systems. Additionally, the Torrington Transfer Station requires an extra inbound scale with identical specifications. The RFP was originally posted on January 5, 2022, with proposals due by February 17, 2022, at 3:00 PM EST. Interested vendors are directed to obtain full details and specifications through MIRA's website, with delivery terms specified as Free On Board Destination and payment terms to be determined by the vendor. The primary contact for this procurement is Roger Guzowski, located at MIRA's Rocky Hill office, with email being the preferred communication method.

The solicitation appears to be open to all vendors without specific set-aside designations or restrictions on organizational types. No incumbent vendor information is provided, and the RFP does not specify a total estimated contract value or budget range. While the documents indicate two addenda were issued during the solicitation period, the specific contents of those addenda are not detailed in the available materials. The procurement is for infrastructure replacement at transfer stations, suggesting potential integration with existing waste management and recycling facilities. Vendors will need to demonstrate technical capability to replace complex weighing infrastructure, including expertise in truck scale installation, load cell replacement, and foundation/drainage system repair. The RFP requires vendors to provide comprehensive proposals that address the technical specifications for scale replacement across multiple transfer station locations, with a focus on precise, functional replacement of existing weighing infrastructure.
