Autoscope Vision Sensors and Comm Managers

The Texas Department of Transportation is soliciting Autoscope vision sensors and communication managers for use within the San Angelo District under solicitation number 601340000065291, with responses due by May 26, 2026. This is a best-value procurement, not a lowest-price technically acceptable award, and TxDOT will evaluate proposals based on purchase price and compliance with specifications as the primary factor, followed by installation and life cycle costs, quality and reliability, delivery terms, vendor performance indicators, training costs, productivity impact, and other relevant considerations. All submissions must be sent electronically via email as PDFs and Excel files, with a total file size not exceeding 20 MB, and must include signed certifications addressing Texas-specific requirements such as non-participation in the Israel boycott, disclosures about relatives employed by TxDOT, compliance with the Lone Star Infrastructure Protection Act, and adherence to drug-free and smoke-free workplace policies. Vendors must certify they have no felony-convicted employees and are not doing business with sanctioned countries. The contract requires delivery F.O.B. destination, with all costs included in the unit price, and TxDOT retains the right to inspect goods both at the vendor’s facility and upon delivery, with acceptance based strictly on conformance to specifications. Packaging must ensure goods arrive in first-class, undamaged condition, though no specific technical standards such as MIL-STD are mandated. The solicitation explicitly excludes any requirement for a UEI or CAGE code but mandates submission of an EIN. Key personnel must be at least 17 years old, English-speaking, professionally dressed, and subject to immediate replacement if deemed unsatisfactory; unauthorized visitors are prohibited on state property. Subcontracting must comply with HUB/SBE guidelines for contracts over $100,000, and vendors remain fully liable for subcontractor performance. Any public communication about the contract requires prior written approval from TxDOT, and upon termination, all work products must be returned. The contracting officer point of contact is Courtney Skains, with questions or updates to be monitored exclusively through the TX SmartBuy portal.
