Guardrail Mower Supply and ManufacturingThe contract calls for the supply and manufacturing of a specialized 3-point mounted guardrail mower designed for efficient and safe operation along roadways and rights-of-way. The equipment features dual independently driven cutting heads to ensure precise trimming on both sides of guardrails, with a 60-inch straddle clearance that allows the mower to navigate between railings without requiring excessive repositioning.

Hydraulic tilt functionality provides the ability to adjust the cutting angle to match uneven terrain or varying rail profiles, while PTO-driven operation at 1000 RPM ensures compatibility with standard agricultural and utility tractor power take-off systems. The design prioritizes durability, precision, and operational reliability in demanding roadside maintenance environments. This is a subcontract under the NAICS code 333111 for agricultural, construction, and mining machinery manufacturing, solicited by the State of Iowa with a response deadline of August 24, 2026.
