The system must be capable of municipal winter road maintenance, including lane pre-treatment and post-storm liquid application, and includes a 1,600+ gallon heavy-duty polyethylene tank with stainless steel skid, a pump system rated up to 245 GPM, a multi-zone stainless steel spray boom with at least 18 nozzles, an in-cab controller with manual and rate-proportional modes, safety lighting, and optional add-ons such as a brine blending station, hose reel, and telematics subscription.

Acceptance occurs at the delivery site after inspection, with warranties required: a 10-year guarantee on the tank and a one-year full-system warranty. Offerors must certify they are in good standing with the State of Maryland, not debarred from public contracting, compliant with employment laws, and not employing unauthorized workers, and must affirm their agreement to all solicitation terms. No UEI, CAGE code, or socioeconomic certifications are required, and the solicitation does not specify small business set-asides or award evaluation weights, though submissions may be rejected for collusion, past defaults, delinquencies, or failure to meet mandatory compliance criteria. Submission is electronic only through the City’s OpenGov Procurement portal, with no physical deliveries permitted.
