Foam Tender Apparatus Rebuild

The City of Pittsburgh, acting through its Equipment Leasing Authority, seeks a qualified manufacturer to rebuild a single specialized Foam Tender fire apparatus using an existing Freightliner chassis. The rebuild must meet stringent NFPA 1900, OSHA, DOT, and UL standards, incorporate advanced foam‑pump systems, and be fully tested (tilt‑table, UL, electrical load, stability). The contractor must provide detailed specifications, drawings, bonding (5 % bid bond, 100 % performance and payment bonds), financing options, and a 24/7 emergency support line. Mandatory pre‑proposal meeting attendance is required, and the contractor must allow on‑site inspections, a pre‑construction conference, mid‑build inspection, and final acceptance testing. Delivery must occur under the contractor’s own power with on‑site training sessions.
