Specifications for 14-foot Tandem Dump Body & 58K lb. GVWR Chassis
General Conditions & Instructions to Bidders
This section outlines the requirements, conditions, and procedures for bidding on fleet asset
purchases for the City of Dayton. Bidders must carefully review and comply with all provisions
to ensure their bid is considered responsive.
Bidding Instructions
Bidders must provide new and unused equipment that meets the City of Dayton's design,
construction, and operational requirements as outlined in these specifications. Responses to all
specification fields are required to avoid proposal rejection. Failure to respond to any required
fields may result in disqualification.
Bidders are responsible for supplying a complete unit with all standard features included in the
manufacturer's latest model in current production. All equipment must comply with all
applicable Federal, State, and Local regulations, including but not limited to design
requirements, noise levels, brakes, lights, and safety standards.
The specifications listed in this document represent minimum requirements. If a manufacturer's
standard equipment does not fully comply with these requirements but can be modified to meet
specifications, such modifications must be clearly documented and submitted in writing with the
bid. Unless otherwise stated, all equipment must be installed by the Original Equipment
Manufacturer (OEM).
Non-OEM installations require written approval from the City of Dayton and must be
accompanied by supporting literature submitted with the bid. The City of Dayton reserves the
right to waive minor technicalities, reject any or all bids, and accept the bid that is determined to
be in the best interest of the City.
Bidding Restrictions
Bids will only be accepted from dealers located within the State of Ohio. Bidders must be direct
employees of the dealership submitting the bid. Third-party bids will not be considered.
All bidders must have the ability to enter orders directly into the manufacturer's order bank
without any third-party involvement. Proof of this capability, along with proof of dealership
employment and location, must be included in the bid submission.
The dealership's sales representative responsible for the bid must be present onsite during
vehicle delivery. A hard paper copy invoice must be provided at the time of delivery.
Warranty
Bidders must guarantee that all manufacturer warranty services will be honored at authorized and
franchised dealer service centers located within the State of Ohio. Warranty service must be
available at one or more authorized service locations reasonably accessible to the City of Dayton
for the duration of the warranty period.

The bid must include detailed warranty service contact information, including the company
name(s), service location(s), and contact person(s). Failure to provide adequate warranty service
availability or required documentation may result in bid rejection.
Warranty acceptance is subject to the approval of the Fleet Manager and will be a key factor in
determining the lowest and best bid. A warranty certificate or card must be supplied with the
vehicle at the time of delivery.
Delivery
The successful bidder coordinates the unit's transportation and insurance until delivery to the
City of Dayton, Division of Fleet Management at 1010 Ottawa Street, Dayton, Ohio 45402.
Time is of the essence. Delivery requirements shall be based on the method of vehicle
acquisition. Vehicles available from existing dealer inventory at the time of order ("on-the-lot"
vehicles) must be delivered within ninety (90) calendar days after receipt of a purchase order.
Vehicles ordered through a manufacturer's order bank must be delivered within one hundred
twenty (120) to one hundred fifty (150) calendar days after receipt of a purchase order, subject
to manufacturer production schedules. Bidders must clearly identify in their bid whether vehicles
are offered as on-the-lot inventory or order bank units. Delivery time may be considered in bid
evaluation and shall be a contractual obligation. Extensions to delivery timelines may be
considered only for documented manufacturer delays beyond the bidder's control and must be
approved in writing by the City. Failure to meet the applicable delivery requirements may result
in remedies as provided in the contract.
To ensure readiness for operation, all vehicles must be delivered with the fuel tank at least 14 full.
Exceptions & Alternative Equipment
Any deviations from these specifications must be fully documented and submitted in writing
with the bid. The City of Dayton reserves the right to accept or reject any alternative equipment
