T0576 - Fire Extinguisher Maintenance Statewide

This state and local contracting opportunity is for fire extinguisher maintenance services across the state of New Jersey, with a focus on the jurisdictions of Mercer County and Trenton City. The New Jersey Department of the Treasury's Division of Purchase and Property is issuing this solicitation, with the intent to award a single master blanket purchase order contract to the responsible vendor whose proposal conforms to the requirements and is most advantageous to the state. The contract will cover inspection, testing, servicing, recharging, and replacement of fire extinguishers for state agencies, counties, municipalities, schools, and other eligible entities. Key dates include a vendor question deadline of 4/26/18, a revised proposal due date of 6/14/18, and a contract term of undisclosed length with possible extensions. Vendors must submit pricing on a state-supplied schedule based on all-inclusive hourly rates, as well as provide an overall technical approach and qualifications to demonstrate their ability to successfully complete the required scope of work.

The contract opportunity is set-aside for small businesses registered with the New Jersey Division of Revenue and Enterprise Services, Small Business Registration and M/WBE Certification Services Unit. Vendors must indicate if they qualify as a minority-owned, women-owned, or small business. The incumbent contractor's current contract specifications and pricing are available online for review by interested vendors. The estimated annual quantities and 3-year total contract value are not disclosed, but the state makes no guarantees of work volume under the resulting contract.
