Sole Brand Consulab Automotive Trainer

Chattahoochee Technical College (CTC) is conducting an electronic Request for Quotes (eRFQ) through the State Purchasing Act to procure a specific Sole Brand Consulab Restraints & Air Bag Diagnostic Trainer for their Automotive Technology Program. The procurement is strictly limited to the exact Consulab trainer model, with no brand or model substitutions permitted. This specialized training equipment is critical for students to complete required automotive diagnostics training and graduate from the program. The trainer will be shipped directly to CTC's address at 1046 South Cobb Drive, Marietta, Georgia 30060. The procurement is time-sensitive, with the eRFQ posted on March 12, 2025, and proposals due by March 20, 2025. Technical questions regarding the Team Georgia Marketplace can be directed to the DOAS Customer Service Help Desk at 404-657-6000 or via email to ProcurementHelp@doas.ga.gov, with support available Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, excluding state holidays.

While the procurement documents do not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations, the requirement for a sole brand trainer suggests a potentially narrow vendor pool. The procurement is specifically for Cobb County and involves Chattahoochee Technical College, located within the jurisdiction. No incumbent vendor information is provided, though the description indicates the new trainer will be used in conjunction with existing Consulab trainers, suggesting some technological compatibility requirements. No specific budget range or award value is explicitly stated in the procurement notice. Potential vendors will need to carefully review the bid requirement documents within the Team Georgia Marketplace bid event to fully understand submission parameters and evaluate their ability to meet the precise equipment specifications for this automotive training equipment procurement.
