Truck & Equipment Upfitting, Including Turn-Key Solutions

See RFP document, Attachment A Scope of Work, page 21. The Lead Agency, through its Agent, LGC, is seeking, on behalf of itself and participating public agencies, proposals for the ongoing supply of Truck & Equipment Upfitting products and services used commonly for building and maintaining roads, canals, parks, sewage systems, refuse management, or any other public infrastructure. Examples of solutions sought include, but are not limited to: • Roadway equipment, aerial equipment, refuse equipment, vacuum/sewer equipment, dump & service bodies, snow & ice equipment, emergency response vehicles, and a related systems/parts/supplies. • Proposers may support any chassis classes (typically Class 1–8), trailer types, or equipment types they regularly upfit. No artificial class limits. • Proposers are highly encouraged to offer wear parts, fasteners and supplies for the ongoing upkeep, repair, or maintenance of the equipment. This may also include services such as painting or repairing equipment, or installing complimentary systems such as electronic controls, hitches, winches, lights, or hydraulic systems. Participating Entities may generally purchase in the following 3 manners: 1) Equipment Only: body/equipment for self-install or 3rd party install. 2) Equipment with Installation (Upfitting Only): On a vehicle or trailer chassis provided by the Purchasing Entity 3) Turn-Key: equipment/products installed on a vehicle or trailer chassis included in the purchase as a pass-through (complimentary to the upfitting), delivering a complete and fully functional solution. The chassis may be acquired by Vendor as a requirement of, and complimentary to, completion of a turn-key solution on a single invoice. Chassis and trailers are complementary to this Contract. They may be included or coordinated solely to complete a turn-key solution or for the convenience of a single invoice. Stand-alone chassis or trailer purchases (with no associated upfitting under this Contract) are outside the core scope. Here, bodies/upfitting/equipment are primary; chassis and trailers are complimentary when they complete a turn-key solution. In all examples above, Proposers are encouraged to offer their full catalog of products within the requested scope of work, and to include example pricing for custom items, for the most commonly sought specifications/configurations. With upfitting it is assumed and understood that Purchasers’ final agreed specifications will affect the final price, which may differ from Proposer’s example pricing due to variations requested by Purchasers.
