The document provides information about the requirements and guidelines for bidders interested in selling Mack truck replacement parts to the New York State Department of Transportation (DOT) and other agencies.
The document states that the Commissioner reserves the right to investigate the capabilities of any bidder to ensure they can properly perform under the contract. Bidders are required to provide information about the number of years they have been active in selling the products and the size and location of their inventories.
Contractors in different regions are required to furnish sets of current price sheets to specific delivery points. They may also need to assist the using agency in the use of the price sheets. Contractors are also required to submit a report containing state agency and authorized non-state agency contract purchases on a biannual basis.
The document encourages vendors to use recycled, remanufactured, or recovered materials in their products and packaging. It also mentions the use of the New York State Procurement Card for orders not exceeding $15,000.
The document highlights the "OGS or Less" guidelines, which allow state agencies to purchase similar products from sources other than the contractor if they are lower in price or more economically efficient. However, the contractor must be given an opportunity to match the non-contract savings before the purchase is made.
The document also mentions the Diesel Emission Reduction Act of 2006, which requires heavy-duty diesel vehicles to use the best available retrofit technology and ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel. The law applies to vehicles owned, operated, or leased by state agencies and public authorities. Contract vendors may also be affected by the law.
Additionally, the document mentions that the law permits waivers of ultra-low sulfur diesel (ULSD) and best available retrofit technology (BART) under limited circumstances.
Overall, the document provides detailed information about the requirements, guidelines, and regulations for bidders and contractors interested in selling Mack truck replacement parts to the New York State DOT and other agencies, including the considerations related to the Diesel Emission Reduction Act and the possibility of waivers for ULSD and BART.
