Transferable service bodies: DOT fuel 2025 GMC HD 2500 DC

The State of Maine Department of Administrative and Financial Services, Office of State Procurement Services, is seeking quotes for transferable service bodies for the Department of Central Fleet Services. Specifically, the procurement involves two fiberglass composite service body units designed to fit 2025 GMC Sierra HD 2500 trucks with 6-7 foot beds. The required service bodies must include full-length side opening doors, integrated rain gutters, interior shelving configured to a plumber/electrician package, 40/60 rear doors, 12V LED lighting, and a drop-down ergonomic ladder rack. Mandatory technical specifications include yellow color code T009-YL14, sealed electrical connections with heat shrink protection, and heavy-duty wire loom. The Request for Quotations (RFQ #18P 250110*0144) requires vendors to pick up vehicles, install components at their facility, and deliver to Central Fleet Management in Augusta, Maine. Responses are due by January 24, 2025, at 4:00 p.m. local time, with bid prices required to remain valid for 180 days from bid opening.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly mentioned in the documentation. The state reserves the right to negotiate additional units at the bid price for six months after the initial award and anticipates making one award, though they retain the option to not make an award. While no incumbent vendors were identified, the procurement allows for flexibility in vendor selection, with delivery timeframe being a consideration in the award decision. The documents do not specify a precise budget range, but they indicate the procurement is for one unit of two different service body configurations. Vendors must provide pricing FOB-Destination, including all shipping charges to the Central Fleet Management location in Augusta. The technical specifications suggest the service bodies are intended for Department of Transportation (DOT) fuel control vehicles, with a specific focus on compatibility with a 2025 GMC Sierra HD 2500 Double cab 4x4 truck.
