Description

The Purchasing Cooperative of America is soliciting proposals from vendors to establish one or more indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contracts for emergency responder products, supplies, technology, and related services. The scope includes emergency medical and EMS equipment; responder personal protective equipment and clothing; communications and incident-command systems; detection and monitoring equipment; hazardous-materials response equipment; search-and-rescue equipment; unmanned aircraft systems and drones; emergency-management and disaster-response equipment; emergency-response vehicle equipment and upfitting; emergency-response technology; accessories, replacement parts, and consumables; and training, installation, maintenance, repair, technical support, and warranty services. Structural firefighting equipment is excluded. Vendors may propose products only, services only, or any combination of offerings they routinely provide. The resulting contracts may be used by current and future cooperative members on local, regional, statewide, or national bases. Proposals are evaluated on products and services, qualifications and experience, performance capability, references, pricing, and value-added offerings. The solicitation requires at least three customer references from within the last two years and provides for multiple awards. It states a five-year contract structure for commodity and most service contracts: one initial year with four additional one-year renewal options.
