Purchase and Delivery of Lowboy Trailer

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation is seeking bids to purchase and deliver a single lowboy trailer to replace an aging unit that is no longer safe to maintain. This trailer is essential for transporting heavy-duty equipment across the region, particularly for emergency response efforts, flood events, and routine program operations throughout the state. The contract is set for a one-year period, with a deadline for submissions on August 6, 2024, at 11:00 AM. The procurement is located in Cortland, NY, and the project falls under the NAICS code 336212, which pertains to heavy-duty truck trailer manufacturing. The department has not set any MWBE or Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Business contracting goals for this project, and no entities with similar contracts in the past five years have been awarded this procurement. The contract emphasizes the importance of acquiring a trailer that meets specific specifications outlined in the bid documents, reflecting the critical nature of this equipment for statewide emergency preparedness and operational needs. The point of contact for this solicitation is Peter Buck, a Contract Management Specialist 2, who can be reached via email for further inquiries. The project underscores the department’s focus on maintaining operational readiness through the procurement of specialized transportation equipment, ensuring safety, reliability, and efficiency in their heavy equipment logistics.
