About this opportunity
The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) is seeking to procure a 21-foot Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB) for its Training Department's Motorboat Training Courses (MOTC) located in Thurston County. The solicitation requires a specific vessel configuration, including a 115-horsepower 4-stroke engine, Hypalon fabric tubes, a deep-V hull, hydraulic steering, LED navigation lighting, and a VHF radio. The boat will be used for critical training exercises such as vessel operation, obstacle avoidance, person recovery, trailer backing, and safe launching and retrieval techniques. Vendors must submit quotations by April 4th, 2025, at 12 PM PST, with the vessel required to be in stock and deliverable no later than June 1st, 2025. The boat will be delivered to WDFW's facility in Olympia, Washington, and must meet specific technical specifications, including environmental considerations such as packaging without PCBs and minimal use of color or dyes.
The procurement opportunity includes provisions for small businesses and veteran-owned businesses, potentially offering preferential treatment during bid evaluation. Vendors must be registered in the Statewide Vendor Payment System and complete certification regarding workers' rights and mandatory arbitration clauses. The estimated cost for the vessel ranges between $50,000 and $55,000, with the solicitation indicating a preference for businesses that meet specific diversity and inclusion criteria. Successful vendors will need to demonstrate compliance with state procurement regulations and provide a boat that meets the precise operational requirements of the WDFW Training Department. The contract appears to be a direct procurement without a multi-stage bidding process, focusing on obtaining a high-quality, purpose-built vessel for marine training purposes.
