RFQ 5435 Inventory parts

The Southwest Ohio Regional Transit Authority (SORTA) is issuing a Request for Quotation (RFQ 5435) for a large list of inventory parts needed to support its transit fleet. Vendors must submit a fully‑populated electronic Bid Pricing Form through the agency’s e‑procurement portal, including freight, lead time (in days), and any applicable core fees. The RFQ covers 42 distinct part numbers ranging from small hardware (e.g., O‑rings, clamps) to larger assemblies (e.g., turbocharger sensors, radiator assemblies). Bids are evaluated primarily on price, with the lowest responsive, responsible bid expected to be awarded. Key requirements include: • All pricing must be all‑inclusive (shipping, taxes, core fees). • Lead time must be entered in the “Notes” column in days. • Vendors must indicate “no bid” for items they do not carry. • Submission deadline is September 2, 2026 at 11:00 AM via the e‑procurement portal. • The award will be made to the responsible bidder offering the lowest responsive price, subject to compliance checks (debarment status, DBE requirements, financial capacity, etc.). • No pre‑bid meeting or site visit is required.
