Storage Containers for Public Works PQ No. 24-0003

The Columbus Consolidated Government (the City) in Muscogee County, Georgia is seeking quotes from qualified vendors to provide two (2) used 20-foot storage containers for the Department of Public Works. The containers must have 1-1/8" marine plywood flooring and lockable double doors at one end, and be in wind and watertight condition. Vendors are also asked to provide pricing for potential additional containers in the City's FY24 and FY25 budgets. Responses are due by March 6, 2024 at 2:30 PM Eastern, and a virtual bid opening will be held during the 3:00 PM hour on the due date. The City reserves the right to award to the lowest responsive, responsible vendor. The pricing for the two containers must include delivery and placement using a tilt trailer. The City may purchase through a comparable cooperative contract if the cost is lower.

The successful vendor will be required to provide insurance coverage as outlined in the solicitation, and federal compliance requirements will apply if the procurement is federally funded. This opportunity is not restricted to any specific types of organizations, and there is no incumbent vendor or current contractor identified. The budget range for this procurement is not specified, but the City may purchase additional containers in future fiscal years.
