About this opportunity
The City of Scranton, located in Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania, is seeking sealed bids for retread tires for city-owned vehicles through Invitation to Bid (ITB) #2022-ITB-031. The procurement covers tire retreading services for the period of January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023, with specific requirements for three tire types: 11R22.5 Radial Drive Retread Waste Hauler Lug Tire with 26/32 Tread, 11R22.5 Radial Drive Retread with 22/32 Tread, and 11R24.5 Radial Drive Retread with 26/32 Tread. Key deliverables include 24/7/365 roadside service, on-demand tire availability, and tires that meet or exceed specified grade requirements. Bidders must submit their proposals electronically via the city's e-Procurement Portal by September 16, 2022, at 1:30 pm, with all questions and clarification requests due by September 9, 2022, at 2:00 pm. The contract will be awarded to the lowest most responsible bidder, with the city reserving the right to reject any or all submissions. Each bidder is required to submit a $500 cashier's check, certified check, or bid bond as a bid guarantee, and the successful bidder must provide a $1,000 surety bond within ten days of award notification.
The solicitation does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Bidders must complete and submit several mandatory forms, including affirmative action certification, non-segregated facilities certification, non-collusion affidavit, and disclosure forms. The procurement process requires bidders to register on the city's e-Procurement Portal, with those failing to "Follow" the project potentially unable to receive addenda notifications or submit a bid. While no specific budget range is mentioned, the $1,000 surety bond requirement suggests a relatively modest contract value. Prospective bidders experiencing technical difficulties with the e-Procurement Portal can contact OpenGov's support team via real-time chat or email at support@procurenow.com. The city emphasizes that it is the respondent's responsibility to ensure timely submission of their bid before the stated deadline.
