Tractor, Agriculture Landscape Utilty with Attachments

The State of New Jersey, through the Department of Treasury's Division of Purchase and Property, is soliciting proposals for a Master Blanket Purchase Order contract to procure Tractors, Agricultural, Landscape, and Utility vehicles with attachments. The procurement is open to multiple state agencies including the Departments of Transportation, Corrections, and Environmental Protection, as well as participating jurisdictions in the state's Cooperative Purchasing Program, such as Mercer County. The contract will be awarded in three groups based on tractor horsepower, with vendors required to bid on all line items within a group. Key requirements include delivery within 30 days, firm fixed pricing, manuals, training, warranties, and compatible attachments such as flail mowers. Proposals are due by July 11, 2017, with a prior deadline for electronic questions and answers.

This solicitation does not include any small business set-asides, but vendors must be registered with the New Jersey Division of Revenue and Enterprise Services as a small business and/or minority/women-owned business to participate. The state reserves the right to separately procure items during the contract term if deemed necessary. While no incumbent contractors are listed, the state previously awarded a similar contract in 2012 for 60 PTO HP tractors and attachments. The solicitation does not specify an award value or budget range for the contract.
