FANUC Robots

Metropolitan Community College (MCC) is seeking to procure three FANUC ER-4iA six-axis robotic systems with R-30iB Mate Plus controllers, LR handling tool software, advanced CERT configuration, an iPendant with touch screen, and electronic documentation to expand its Industrial Technology robotics program. The equipment is intended for educational use at the Advanced Technical Skills Institute in Kansas City, Missouri, with delivery required by March 31, 2027, during standard business hours. The contract is structured as a competitive solicitation issued on July 11, 2026, with bids due on August 7, 2026, and awards will be made on a lowest price technically acceptable basis. Bidders must comply with mandatory requirements including E-Verify enrollment, Missouri-based business preference granting a 5% price advantage, and a minimum of five years of relevant experience. Subcontractor diversity participation is required, and offerors must demonstrate good faith efforts to utilize minority, women-owned, veteran, and disadvantaged business enterprises. All equipment must be new, fully warranted, and conform to specified brand and model standards—no substitutions are permitted without MCC’s written approval. Packaging must follow commercial standards without additional charges, and all shipments must be FOB destination to the designated delivery address with proper labeling including purchase reference information. Bidders must complete and submit sworn affidavits confirming E-Verify compliance, non-collusion, and federal work authorization, along with signed attestations of non-discrimination and adherence to Missouri statutes prohibiting boycotts of Israeli goods. Contractors are required to indemnify MCC against claims, comply with all OSHA and institutional policies, and are prohibited from using MCC branding without explicit consent. Payment terms commence upon invoice receipt and acceptance, and no state or local taxes are applicable due to MCC’s tax-exempt status. The contract prohibits assignment without prior written approval, and in case of conflicts, the purchase order takes precedence over all other documents. No formal federal acquisition regulation clauses apply; instead, the procurement follows municipal procedures with form-based compliance requirements.
