Portable Construction Equipment with Related Accessories and Attachments

Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, is soliciting proposals for a cooperative purchasing master agreement for portable construction equipment and related accessories. This solutions-based procurement aims to provide thousands of participating entities across the United States and Canada with access to new, current model equipment, including air compressors, light towers, portable generators, pressure washers, personnel aerial equipment, scissor lifts, elevated access platforms, pumps under 30 HP, and hand-operated soil compaction equipment. The estimated annual value of all transactions resulting from this RFP is 20 million USD. Proposals must be submitted exclusively through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal by October 8, 2026, at 3:30 p.m. Central Time. The resulting master agreements will have an initial four-year term, with the possibility of three one-year extensions. Awards will be granted to the highest-scoring proposers based on a 1,000-point evaluation focusing on overall quality, selection of equipment, and price. Sourcewell encourages participation from small, minority-owned, women-owned, and veteran-owned business enterprises. All proposed equipment must meet applicable safety and regulatory standards and include industry-standard warranties. Pricing may be submitted as line-item costs or as a percentage discount from a catalog, and must include a not-to-exceed price. For entities using federal grant funds, such as FEMA, the agreement incorporates the terms and conditions of 2 C.F.R. section 200.327 and Appendix II to 2 C.F.R. section 200.
