T3087 - Asphalt Transporter Unit, 4 Ton Diesel Heated, Tandem Axle, Trailer Mounted

The State of New Jersey Department of the Treasury, Division of Purchase and Property, is seeking bids on behalf of the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) for the procurement of an Asphalt Transporter Unit, 4 Ton Diesel Heated, Tandem Axle, Trailer Mounted with Liquid Asphalt Storage Container. The intent is to award a master blanket purchase order contract to the responsible vendor whose conforming quote is most advantageous to the State. The solicitation includes detailed technical specifications for the unit, as well as requirements for delivery, warranties, pre-production meetings, and inspections. Vendors must bid on both the base unit and any manufacturer's options and attachments for their quote to be considered responsive. The bid submission deadline is July 11, 2019 at 2:00 PM Eastern Time, and the State reserves the right to make a single award for the entire group.

While the solicitation does not include any small business or disabled veteran-owned business set-asides, the State may invoke reciprocal action against out-of-state vendors whose home states maintain preference practices for in-state vendors. The contract opportunity is specific to the State of New Jersey, with Mercer County and the City of Trenton identified as the participating jurisdictions. The contract will be awarded as a Blanket Purchase Order, and the State indicates it may extend the contract to cooperative purchasing program participants. No details are provided regarding incumbent vendors, current contracts, or budget ranges.
