Hostile Vehicle Mitigation Barriers

The City of Mesa issued an RFP for the design, fabrication, delivery, installation, and ongoing maintenance of portable hostile‑vehicle mitigation barriers. The barriers must meet recognized crash‑test standards (ISO 22343‑1, IWA 14, or PAS 68), be movable by a single adult, and be transportable on a custom trailer. The solicitation was open to competitive bidding, with two vendors ultimately awarded the contract, each receiving a share of a $1 million‑per‑year award. The contract is a firm‑fixed‑price, three‑year agreement that may be renewed for up to two additional one‑year periods and includes a possible six‑month month‑to‑month extension. Key points include: • Requirement for certified, portable barrier systems that can be rapidly deployed without heavy equipment. • Mandatory submission of a detailed pricing sheet (Attachment A) and compliance with potential future federal funding documentation. • Evaluation based on technical compliance, operational suitability, durability, transportation solutions, and warranty provisions.
