The Michigan Department of Transportation has canceled RFP 260000002026 for the purchase of two trailer-mounted sewer jetters; the cancellation was issued June 11, 2026, and no re-bid is planned.

The RFP, which had been open to alternate makes and models with supporting product literature, specified a primary reference unit of Sewer Equipment Co. of America model 747-FR2000 Classic Trailer Jet. The scope called for two units, one each to be delivered to Mt. Pleasant Garage in Mt. Pleasant, Michigan, and Southwest Central Repair Facility in Paw Paw, Michigan. Detailed specifications included a 56 HP Turbo Diesel Tier IV engine with a 40 GPM plunger pump at 2000 PSI, 800-foot hose reel capacity with automatic levelwind and digital distance meter, 600 feet of 3/4-inch ID hose rated for 2500 PSI, 700-gallon black super-poly water tank, NEMA 4 lighted control panel with electronic throttle control and auto-shutdown, wireless remote pendant control with pressure display, tandem axle trailer with electric brakes and DOT-approved lighting, and accessories including leader hose, nozzles, fill hose, washdown equipment, and operational manuals. All units were required to be latest-production models built to ANSI standards, Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards 108, and OSHA/MIOSHA requirements, fully assembled and ready for operation. Delivery was expected within 120 calendar days, with a minimum one-year warranty and 8 hours of on-site training at each location at no cost to the State. The original proposal deadline was June 15, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time, with an anticipated contract begin date of July 8, 2026.
