The system must accommodate vehicles up to 14 feet high and 10 feet wide, be manufactured no more than one year prior to delivery, and have been in commercial use for at least two years or 6,000 field hours. All equipment must be new, with no refurbished or used items permitted, and must be rated for operation in temperature ranges of 32°F to 140°F and humidity levels up to 95% non-condensing. The contractor must submit a detailed PDF floor plan prior to installation, verifying proper fit within the facility’s structural envelope, and must demonstrate at least three years of successful car wash maintenance experience with documentation of three similar prior installations. Key personnel, including a designated contract manager and alternate, must be identified and available during standard business hours, and all contractor employees must clearly identify themselves as such when interacting with government personnel.
