Vehicle Tint

The Pennsylvania Department of General Services is soliciting electronic bids for full window tint and installation on 43 vehicles, with bids due November 23, 2026. Only electronic bids through the PA Supplier Portal are accepted, and vendors must register and obtain a vendor number before bidding. Questions must be submitted in writing to Melissa Walker at least 48 hours before bid close, with answers posted as addenda on eMarketplace. The attached Reciprocal Limitations file describes conditions on vendor eligibility, pricing, and contract obligations and requires review before bidding.

The work covers XR Plus Ceramic film with 96% heat rejection and 99% UV protection on side windows, rear glass, and windshield sun strips across SUVs, minivans, full-size vans, and wagons. The tint carries a lifetime warranty against color fading or adhesive bubbling, registered by vehicle identification number. Installation takes place at the DGS Vehicle Garage at 2221 Forester St., Harrisburg, PA 17103, or at an alternate local location agreed to before installation. Unit pricing must include labor, materials, equipment, tools, insurance, and delivery, with items delivered F.O.B. Destination. The Commonwealth may inspect deliveries and reject non-conforming products at contractor expense. Imported-product price adjustments are permitted if tariffs are established after bid acceptance, with a tariff certificate and proof of payment. The Commonwealth may award by individual item or on a total bid basis, whichever is most advantageous.

The contract is a one-time purchase with renewal options. The attached scope of work names the Department of Corrections as the issuing agency, while the solicitation and installation site are tied to DGS. Before award, the Department may request references for similar work completed within the prior two years. Invoices are due within 10 business days of completed service as PDF files. The awardee must contact Colleen Little at colittle@pa.gov after award to schedule installation. Bidders must monitor eMarketplace for change notices, which are incorporated into the Invitation for Bids.
