OCA REC | Electric 2WD Utility Vehicle (Qty.5)

The City and County of San Francisco, through its Office of Contract Administration on behalf of the Recreation and Parks Department, has issued an Invitation for Bids (IFB) for the procurement of five new Battery Electric 2WD Utility Vehicles with dump beds designed for staff and material transportation across City parks. These vehicles must comply with a range of federal, state, and local safety and environmental standards, including FMVSS, Cal-OSHA, EPA regulations, and California Title 13. Bidders are required to submit proposals that meet or exceed the specifications detailed in the P-696 IFB document, and participation in pre-bid meetings is strongly encouraged to address any specification clarifications or alternatives. The bid due date has been extended to June 18, 2024, at 12:00 PM, and bidders must ensure their bids incorporate all issued addenda. This procurement is conducted as a full and open competition under a firm-fixed-price basis, evaluated on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) methodology. Vendors must first meet minimum qualifications to be considered; those that pass will be evaluated solely based on price, with applicable local business enterprise (LBE) discounts factored in. Delivery is FOB Destination to a City facility in San Francisco by June 22, 2024. The contract includes requirements for comprehensive labeling of vehicle controls and components, adherence to safety standards, and proper packaging and delivery conditions. Contract administration is managed by the Office of Contract Administration, with Mark Farley serving as the primary point of contact. Special contract stipulations involve cybersecurity assessments, compliance with San Francisco workforce policies including COVID-19 vaccination mandates, local hiring requirements, and insurance coverage obligations. Non-federal socioeconomic programs focus primarily on San Francisco’s LBE certification and participation, with no explicit federal small business provisions invoked. The City reserves the right to reject non-conforming deliveries and enforces strict inspection and acceptance protocols at the destination point.
