About this opportunity

The Texas General Land Office (GLO) has issued Invitation for Bids (IFB) No. 5768-MK for three marine vessels to support the Oil Spill Division's regional operations. The procurement specifically seeks two 20' marine grade aluminum work boats for Regions 1 and 4, and one 21' marine grade aluminum work boat for Region 3, all designed for coastal protection and oil spill applications. These vessels must meet rigorous specifications including corrosion resistance, structural stability, and impact resistance, with required features such as center consoles, T-tops, push knees, and semi-V hulls. Bidders must demonstrate at least five years of experience in building custom marine vessels and have the capability to provide timely delivery. The GLO will evaluate bids based on purchase price and compliance with specified requirements, with the goal of selecting the best value for the state. The bid was released on June 5, 2025, with bids due by June 30, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. CT, and an anticipated notice of award on July 10, 2025. The contract allows for multiple vendors to be awarded, with a required delivery timeline of 180 calendar days from the purchase order.

The solicitation includes provisions for HUB (Historically Underutilized Business) participation, though no specific mandatory subcontracting requirements are established for this contract. Bidders can quote prices for vessels, alternate engine options (including Yamaha F150XB and Suzuki DF150A), and trailers, with separate pricing for delivery to each regional office. Warranty requirements include at least one year for the vessel and engine, five years for the hull, and three years for the trailer. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the procurement allows for competitive pricing across multiple line items. The contract covers Johnson County and is part of the state of Texas's broader coastal protection infrastructure strategy. The procurement approach allows for flexibility in vendor selection, potentially enabling small to medium-sized marine vessel manufacturers to compete for the contract by offering competitive pricing and meeting the specified technical requirements.
