LIFT CHAIR, XL LIFT CHAIR RECLINER, 500

The City of Houston, through the Houston Health Department, is soliciting bids for the procurement of a new, professional healthcare patient lift designed for the safe transfer and repositioning of patients with limited mobility. The equipment must be a current production model, new and unused, and compliant with all applicable federal safety requirements and industry standards. Bidders are required to provide comprehensive product documentation, including manufacturer specifications, operating instructions, safety information, and warranty details, along with an estimated delivery lead time. The award will be granted to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with the City reserving the right to award based on individual items, combinations, or the overall best bid. The contract requires the vendor to deliver the equipment FOB destination and coordinate delivery with a designated department representative. Upon delivery, the Houston Health Department will inspect the equipment to ensure it is not damaged, defective, or non-compliant; any rejected items must be replaced or corrected by the vendor at no additional cost. Payment is issued thirty days after the City approves the invoice or accepts the goods. Bidders must certify their status as an equal opportunity employer, confirm no collusion in the bidding process, and attest that they do not provide supplies to foreign terrorist organizations. Preference may be given to vendors designated as City Businesses or Local Businesses under the Hire Houston First Program.
