The solicitation DOTD-ASTRO BRAC GALAXY MOUNT, identified by number 3000026561, is issued by the Louisiana Department of Transportation & Development for the procurement of 300 units of the PELCO AG-3055-96-PNC Astro-Brac Galaxy Clamp Kit, a specialized mounting hardware assembly for mast arm installations. All items must be new, unused, and in current model packaging with clear labeling that includes the company name, brand, model number, and solicitation number; no military or industry packaging standards such as MIL-STD-129 or MIL-STD-2073 are referenced, and no barcode, labeling durability, or handling instructions are mandated. Delivery must be F.O.B. Destination to the specified Louisiana address in Baton Rouge, with all transportation costs prepaid by the vendor. The contract allows for a single 12-month renewal option, extending the total performance period to a maximum of 36 months, though initial delivery timelines and start/end dates are unspecified. Contractual obligations require strict adherence to Louisiana law and state procurement statutes, with clauses addressing prices, deliveries, taxes, new products, and cancellation procedures, all governed by conditional language allowing state discretion. Compliance with civil rights laws, including Title VI and VII, the ADA, Section 508, and WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility standards is mandatory, and failure to meet these may result in contract termination. The state reserves the right to reject bids from contractors whose owners holding five percent or more interest have felony convictions involving fraud or public contract misconduct. Bidders claiming U.S. or Louisiana preference must submit supporting documentation verifying domestic or state-based manufacturing. Evaluation criteria are not formally weighted, but price and full compliance with technical specifications—including submission of descriptive literature for any proposed equivalent products—are central to award consideration. The solicitation does not require UEI, CAGE codes, or socioeconomic certifications, and no Contracting Officer’s Representative or payment instructions are identified; proposals must be submitted through the state’s vendor portal before the deadline of August 12, 2026, with no fax or late submissions accepted.
