Radios for State Police

Paragraph 1:

The Massachusetts Department of State Police (POL) is conducting a competitive Request for Quote (RFQ) for the procurement of portable and mobile radios. The RFQ includes 34 line items for various Motorola radio models, parts, and repair services, with the intent to award a single vendor contract through June 30, 2014. The procurement is being conducted under Massachusetts state procurement laws and regulations, and responses are due by November 18, 2013 at 12:00 PM. The evaluation will be based on criteria designed to determine best value to the Commonwealth, with the POL having discretion to accept equivalent parts. Pricing terms indicate that the quote will be good through June 30, 2014.

Paragraph 2:

The procurement is open and competitive, with no set-asides or incumbent information provided. Funding for this contract will be determined by the POL, though no specific funding amounts or sources are identified in the RFQ documents. The procurement seeks to establish a statewide contract vehicle for the requested radio equipment and services, which may benefit agencies and jurisdictions across the state, including Middlesex County and Framingham City.
