CD - Bucket Trucks

The Missouri Department of Transportation Central District is seeking to procure two Versalift VST-47-MHI bucket trucks mounted on Ford 600 chassis 4x4 from Custom Truck One Source, identified as the sole source supplier due to unique availability at a discounted price during a limited-time offer. This is a one-time purchase under solicitation MODOT 0000000360SL, with bids due by July 27, 2026, and the contract awarded based on the lowest and best bid, considering price, vendor responsibility, and full compliance with mandatory specifications. The procurement follows Missouri state laws and incorporates key contractual requirements including Buy American Act compliance through Exhibit N, Anti-Discrimination Against Israel Act Certification via Exhibit M for contractors with ten or more employees, and adherence to a drug-free workplace. All deliveries must occur at MoDOT locations within Missouri during daylight hours on business days, with a MoDOT representative present for inspection and acceptance, and no weekend or holiday deliveries are permitted without explicit authorization. The contractor must submit a delivery schedule at least two business days prior to delivery, and items must be merchantable, defect-free, and fit for purpose. Payment is processed through the vendor’s registered MissouriBUYS account, with no sales tax chargeable due to the state’s tax-exempt status, and invoices must reference the purchase order number to avoid delays. Although no formal pricing details are provided, the contract value remains unspecified, and no individual clause numbering from the Federal Acquisition Regulation is used; instead, terms are governed by MODOT’s internal SFS General and Special Terms and Conditions. The contract includes no detailed packaging, marking, or preservation requirements, and no CAGE code, UEI, or socioeconomic status certifications are mandated. Delivery is required within 60 days of contract execution, and awards will be made based on compliance with all mandatory provisions, with no numerical weighting applied to evaluation criteria beyond the 10% price preference afforded under the Buy American Act.
