SP-Gasoline Powered Centrifugal Pump

The Illinois State Toll Highway Authority (ISTHA) is seeking a vendor to provide five (5) 4-inch National Pipe Thread (NPT) gasoline-powered centrifugal pumps for Dupage County. The procurement is outlined in a detailed Request for Quote (RFQ) that specifies the technical requirements, including engine size, fuel tank capacity, minimum flow rate and head, ability to pump solids, construction materials, and required accessories. Quotes must be submitted by February 16, 2021, and the contract is for a one-time purchase with an anticipated start date of March 15, 2021 and completion date of July 14, 2021. Pricing must be valid for 180 days, and the contract will be awarded to the responsive and responsible bidder submitting the lowest price for the full quantity of the requested items. Bidders must complete and return a specification compliance questionnaire with their quote, and failure to do so will result in disqualification.

The contract opportunity is open to all qualified vendors, and there are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The RFQ does not identify any incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor does it provide any information on existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The RFQ does not specify a budget range, but states that the Tollway is guaranteed the lowest price in the event of a decrease.
