About this opportunity
The City of Scranton Office of Fire Department is soliciting sealed bids for the procurement of 1,500 10-year lithium battery UL Certified Smoke Detectors and 500 10-year battery operated UL Certified Carbon Monoxide Detectors. This competitive bidding process is being conducted through the City's e-Procurement Portal, with electronic submissions required before 10:00 am on February 22, 2024. Vendors must register on the portal to participate and will be required to submit comprehensive documentation including a certificate of insurance, affirmative action certifications, non-segregated facilities documentation, non-collusion affidavits, and contractor disclosures. The detectors must meet specific technical requirements, including UL certification and NFPA standards, with a mandatory 10-year battery life. Potential bidders must submit any technical questions or clarification requests through the portal's Q&A function by 4:00 pm on February 16, 2024. The bid opening will be conducted in City Council Chambers and simultaneously livestreamed on YouTube for public viewing.
The procurement opportunity appears to be open to all qualified vendors without specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises. Bidders must provide a 10% Bid Bond and be prepared to submit Performance and Payment Bonds if awarded the contract. Vendors are required to hold their pricing for 120 days after the award and commit to a delivery timeline not exceeding 90 days from ordering. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the procurement involves 2,000 total detection devices, suggesting a potentially significant contract value. Interested firms must demonstrate full compliance with local, state, and federal regulations and provide comprehensive documentation of their qualifications. Technical specifications are stringent, requiring UL certification and adherence to rigorous safety standards, which may limit participation to manufacturers or distributors with specialized capabilities in safety detection equipment.
