The equipment must be the manufacturer's latest standard production model, featuring a Tier IV final diesel liquid-cooled engine with at least 160 HP, power shift transmission, and specific cold weather and idle shutdown capabilities. A critical component of this procurement is a guaranteed buyback arrangement after one year. All units must be delivered to Frankfort, Kentucky, by November 30, 2026, with liquidated damages of 600 dollars per day per shorted unit for late delivery. The contract will be awarded based on a best value ranking approach, with 65 points allocated to the lowest price and 35 points to the highest total buyback price. Bidders must submit all responses electronically via the Kentucky Vendor Self Service system by September 15, 2026. Awardees are required to maintain commercial general liability insurance with a 1 million dollar per occurrence limit and provide a performance bond that is held until the buyback payment is completed.

The Commonwealth reserves the right to conduct an end of contract inspection between December 15, 2027, and January 1, 2028, prior to the vendor picking up the equipment.
