Two (2) New/Unused 2027 Full-size SUV Police Pursuit Vehicles (PPV)

The San Diego County Regional Airport Authority is soliciting bids for the procurement of two new, unused 2027 full-size SUV police pursuit vehicles, equipped with the 9C1 Police Package, including heavy-duty suspension, auxiliary battery, police-calibrated brakes, steel wheels, all-season tires, interior lighting, and four programmed keys per vehicle. The contract requires full delivery of the vehicles along with all necessary accessories, offloading, DMV registration, shipping, and compliance with California emissions standards, with a strict delivery deadline of December 31, 2026. The vehicles must be delivered to the designated receiving location at 3270 Admiral Boland Way, San Diego, CA 92101, and will be inspected for conformance to bid specifications at the same location, with the Authority retaining the right to inspect and accept or reject the vehicles within ten working days of delivery. The solicitation, numbered 414288FC and posted on July 14, 2026, has a response deadline of August 12, 2026, and requires electronic submission as a single PDF through the Authority’s online portal, with no alternative submission methods accepted. Bids must include all required attachments, including eligibility certifications, equipment specifications, warranty details, and ownership transfer documentation, along with a declaration of non-collusion. The contract is awarded under a lowest price technically acceptable framework, emphasizing responsiveness and responsibility as threshold criteria before price is considered. The evaluation prioritizes conformance with specifications, the bidder’s demonstrated capacity to deliver, and ultimately the lowest bid amount among technically qualified offerors. Bidders must certify their status as small, veteran-owned, disadvantaged, or local businesses to potentially qualify for a monetary preference of up to $200,000 or seven percent, though no such preference affects technical acceptability. The contract incorporates federal statutes related to civil rights, FAA airspace regulations, and environmental compliance by reference but does not include formal FAR clauses. No specific contract type is defined, and no payment office, COR, COTR, or PCO details are provided, though payment terms require invoices submitted within 30 days of delivery, with net 30-day payment. All vehicles must be free of defects, liens, and intellectual property infringement, and comply with internal vehicle configuration codes for paint, wheels, and suspension. The Authority retains rights to airspace navigation and prohibits anything that obstructs or interferes with airport operations, with contractors
