Snowmobiles

The State of Idaho Division of Purchasing, specifically the Idaho Department of Fish and Game (IDFG), is seeking bids for the procurement of 22 new 2024 or current model year snowmobiles through an Invitation to Bid (ITB) # 330. This procurement is targeted for Canyon County and aims to replace older snowmobiles as part of IDFG's Fleet Management Program. The snowmobiles must meet detailed technical specifications and will be delivered FOB to the IDFG Region 3 Headquarters within one year of bid submission. Vendors must submit bids electronically via the IPRO system by March 26, 2024, with the award being made to the responsive, responsible bidder offering the lowest total cost. The bid must include a fully burdened total cost that encompasses all fees and delivery expenses, and no alternate bids or modifications to standard contract terms will be considered. Upon delivery, the snowmobiles will undergo a 14-day acceptance period, and the contractor must provide a signed invoice. The manufacturer's standard warranty must be included for all purchased snowmobiles.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly detailed in the provided documentation. The procurement appears open to all qualified vendors capable of meeting the technical specifications and requirements. While no incumbent vendors were mentioned, the contract includes standard insurance requirements mandating commercial general liability, commercial automobile liability, and workers compensation insurance with specified minimum coverage limits. The selected contractor must obtain insurance from carriers rated A-VII or better and name the State of Idaho, the contracting agency, and its divisions, officers, and employees as additional insured parties. Though a precise award value was not specified, the procurement involves 22 snowmobiles, suggesting a potentially significant contract value. The contract will be monitored by the Idaho Division of Purchasing, with a standard administrative fee of 1.25% applied to the total contract value. The initial contract term is not explicitly defined, but the delivery window is set within one year of bid submission.
