DOMI Equipment Trailer

The Equipment Leasing Authority of the City of Pittsburgh is soliciting bids for the purchase and delivery of a single new, unused utility/landscape trailer for the Department of Mobility and Infrastructure. The trailer must be a 6 ft × 14 ft unit with a minimum 3,500 lb GVWR, featuring a fully welded steel frame, pressure-treated wood deck, single axle with leaf spring suspension, DOT-compliant LED lighting system including stop, turn, and tail lights with standard wiring connector, a full-width fold-down ramp, non-slip deck surface, integrated tie-down points, a 2-inch ball coupler with safety chains, and a tongue jack. The equipment must have a corrosion-resistant finish suitable for municipal use and winter conditions, and must be delivered fully assembled, clean, and operational at the City Garage in Pittsburgh, PA, under F.O.B. Destination terms. All submissions must comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards and Pennsylvania state regulations, and any proposed “Approved Equal” equipment must meet or exceed the stated specifications and receive prior written approval. Bidders are required to disclose the cooperative contract under which their quote is submitted—such as Sourcewell, Omnia Partners, or Costars—and provide detailed vehicle specifications along with complete pricing for the single line item. Proposals must be submitted electronically via the ProcureNow portal no later than July 28, 2026, at 3:00 PM, with no oral, fax, or email submissions accepted. Invoices must include the ELA purchase order number, a clear breakdown of labor and parts costs, and any modifications to the order require prior written authorization. Documentation accompanying delivery must include the Manufacturer’s Certificate of Origin, owner/operator manuals, and warranty information. The City will inspect and accept the trailer upon delivery, and payment will be processed only after acceptance. There are no designated federal acquisition regulation clauses, socioeconomic or size status certifications, UEI or CAGE code requirements, or formal evaluation factors published; however, compliance with technical specifications and timely delivery are implicit basis for award. Vendors must also provide monthly production and delivery status updates to the City’s fleet services email, beginning at award and continuing through final delivery.
