All materials must be provided and installed at the vendor's place of business, with delivery required through June 30, 2015. Award will be made to the bidder(s) deemed most advantageous to the state based on cost, equipment quality and safety considerations, life cycle costs, bidder qualifications and experience, and proposed operator training. Bidders must register on the Colorado Vendor Self Service website and submit bid prices on an FOB-destination basis with separate line items for materials and labor for each vehicle type or configuration.

The solicitation does not specify set-aside designations or restrictions limiting participation to particular enterprise types, suggesting this procurement is open to all qualified vendors. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the available documentation. Bidders are required to provide payment terms, with the state assuming net 30 days unless otherwise specified, and terms of less than 30 days with discounts are encouraged. The state reserves the right to cancel any order not delivered by the stated date and to divide the award among multiple bidders if deemed advantageous, though a single-bidder award is preferred. No specific budget range or award value is disclosed in the solicitation materials, with pricing to remain valid through June 30, 2015. Technical inquiries should be directed to Gabe Hicks of the Division of Adult Parole, and award results will be posted on the Colorado Vendor Self Service website following the bid submission date.
