The City of Edinburg’s Solid Waste Management Department is soliciting competitive sealed bids from qualified vendors to provide a comprehensive tire and fleet support program. The scope includes supplying new tires (OEM or better), retreading services, flat‑repair services, and on‑site fleet maintenance for a range of municipal vehicles (refuse trucks, support fleet, OTR equipment, etc.). Vendors must meet strict technical specifications (Tier I manufacturers, UTQG ratings, high‑heat compounds for South Texas conditions) and adhere to detailed service level agreements (pre‑trip inspections, 30‑minute on‑site response within city limits, 1‑hour outside limits). Pricing must be firm for 12 months, and the contract may be awarded on a line‑item basis to multiple vendors. Delivery, inventory, and warranty requirements are also defined.
• Supply of new, premium‑grade tires for heavy‑duty refuse, support, and OTR fleets (Goodyear, Michelin, Bridgestone, etc.).
• Retread services using approved cap‑cure, pre‑cure, or mold‑cure technologies with required quality certifications.
• Flat‑repair and on‑site service with SLA: 30 min response within city, 1 hr to ETJ/15 mi radius.
• Mandatory pre‑trip inspections each weekday at 5:00 AM.
• Pricing guaranteed for 12 months; contract may be split among vendors per line‑item.
• Mandatory insurance coverage (general liability, workers’ comp, auto liability) and warranty provisions.
• Delivery to City facilities; vendors must maintain local inventory and substitute discontinued items at no extra cost.
• Evaluation based on lowest responsible bid, compliance with specifications, and past performance.
