Truck Parts - Statewide

The Texas State Technical College (TSTC) is issuing a Request for Proposal (RFP) to solicit bids for the procurement of truck parts, specifically rear axles and Allison transmissions, for several TSTC campuses. The RFP is open from November 3, 2023, and will close on November 17, 2023, at 2:00 PM CST. The successful respondent will be required to deliver the requested products by March 1, 2024, or sooner. Evaluation criteria for the RFP include the respondent's history of support for Institutions of Higher Education (IHE) in Texas, any exceptions to the provided terms and conditions, and any value-added services or goods the respondent can provide at no additional cost. The RFP also includes instructions for completing a Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) Subcontracting Plan, if required, and the submission of a monthly Progress Assessment Report (PAR) even if there is no actual subcontracting.

The RFP is open to active registered Texas HUB suppliers, as well as Minority Business Enterprise/Women Business Enterprise suppliers. TSTC reserves the right to check references prior to award, and any negative responses may be grounds for disqualification. No additional details are provided regarding quantities, pricing terms, set-asides, incumbents, funding requirements, or other salient details.
