2026 or newer Marathon 2 Ton Asphalt Hot Box or approved equ

The City of Cincinnati is seeking a single 2026‑or‑newer Marathon 2‑ton asphalt hot‑box trailer (or an approved equal) to support the Greater Cincinnati Water Works Department. The equipment must meet detailed specifications—including a welded six‑inch channel‑iron frame, 4,000 lb hopper, hydraulic scissor‑lift, insulated stainless‑steel doors, 7‑pin RV plug, safety equipment, lighting, and optional spare tire and toolbox. Bidders must submit three electronic volumes via the City’s Vendor Self‑Service portal, with the pricing sheet in an unaltered Excel file (only highlighted cells editable). The evaluation will be based on the “Lowest and Best Bidder” method. All bidders must provide required insurance, warranty certifications, and DEI documentation; failure to do so results in a non‑responsive bid. The contract award will go to the responsive bidder offering the lowest firm price (exclusive of Ohio sales tax).
