Sedgwick County sought a single new ½‑ton, 4‑wheel‑drive crew‑cab short‑bed truck to replace an aging fleet vehicle used by the Sheriff’s Office. The solicitation required a factory‑installed dark‑blue vehicle with specific accessories (keyless entry, hard‑folding tonneau cover, spray‑in bedliner) and mandated delivery to the county’s fleet management site. After an open competition among 105 vendors, Don Hattan Chevrolet submitted the lowest responsive bid at $41,998 and was recommended for award. The contract is a firm‑fixed‑price, delivered‑price agreement that will terminate upon successful delivery and acceptance of the vehicle.
