The City of Mobile Police Department’s Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Unit is seeking a single Peraton Spartan EOD Robot to enhance its bomb‑squad capabilities. The solicitation is a sealed competitive bid (all‑or‑none) with the lowest‑priced, technically‑compliant bid to be awarded. The robot must meet detailed technical specifications—including a dual‑track chassis, multi‑degree‑of‑freedom manipulator arm, extensive sensor suite, and both wireless (MPU5 S‑Band) and fiber‑optic communications—be fully assembled on delivery, and include at least two days of on‑site training. Funding comes from a DHS Port‑Security Grant, so no local vendor preference applies. The bid submission deadline was extended to January 28, 2025 due to inclement weather. Key points:
• One (1) Peraton Spartan EOD Robot required, fully operational upon delivery.
• Sealed competitive bid; award based on lowest price after technical compliance.
• Grant‑funded (DHS Port‑Security) with 5 % bid bond requirement and 20‑day payment terms.
• Vendor must provide 24‑hour U.S. support, spare‑parts kit, and on‑site training.
