Description

The Utah Department of Corrections seeks a vendor to design, engineer, build, and deliver custom mother trailers for a mother-daughter food-cart transport system. The initial order is for nine trailers, with the possibility of additional orders. Each trailer must accommodate food carts of specified sizes and weights, use secure cart-locking and ramp systems, support bidirectional towing and synchronized steering, and meet a 26-foot turning constraint. The trailers must be compatible with the agency’s existing electric tugger and include specified hitch ratings, parking brakes, solid rubber tires, and weather-resistant construction and finish. The vendor must provide basic drawings showing specifications and ratings, plus a report documenting engineering, testing, and results. The agency will inspect and test a first-article trailer before the remaining units are built and delivered in stages. The initial order must be delivered by June 30, 2027. Technical proposals are evaluated on experience, ordering and delivery, and product quality and warranty; only vendors meeting the technical score threshold proceed to cost evaluation. The contract term is five years, and pricing must be guaranteed for two years.
