Supply and Delivery of Transit Transmissions

The City of Peterborough is seeking proposals under solicitation VOR-154-26 for a Vendor of Record to handle the supply and delivery of transit transmissions, components, and related parts for its bus fleet. This three-year Master Framework Agreement focuses specifically on the procurement of genuine factory OEM parts, including Allison transmission models 295604003 and 29549630 or approved equivalents. While the vendor is responsible for the delivery of these components, all installation and servicing will be performed in-house by the City. Proposals must be submitted via the Bids and Tenders portal by October 28, 2026. The selection process is based on a weighted scoring system that evaluates technical capability, inventory availability and lead times, pricing, warranty and technical support, and social value. To be considered, respondents must provide evidence of their status as an authorized distributor, service provider, rebuilder, or reseller, along with a valid business license and HST registration number. Award criteria emphasize the ability to meet a five-business-day standard delivery window and the provision of comprehensive technical support. Additionally, the City requires proof of insurance and WSIB compliance as conditions of the award.
