Pulaski County invites sealed bids from qualified and responsible fire apparatus manufacturers, dealers or authorized suppliers for one new current model year or newer 4,000 gallon mobile water supply fire apparatus/tanker.

This procurement is intended to be funded in whole or in part with a Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) award, and the recipient of this bid award will be expected to comply with any and all federal grant requirements listed within the bid documents.

The bid shall be a firm fixed price for a complete, operational, tested, and compliant apparatus and all specified loose equipment. The County will prepare and retain an independent estimate and price analysis before award. Any post-award change must be documented, within the FEMA-approved scope and budget, and supported by a price/cost analysis when required. Cost-plus-a-percentage-of-cost and percentage-of-construction-cost methods are prohibited.
The June 4, 2026, quotation used to develop the desired configuration totaled $599,398.00. This amount is a planning estimate only- it is not a guaranteed contract price, bid ceiling, or preferred-vendor price. Bidders must independently price the competitive solicitation.

Bids are due Friday, December 4, 2026 at 10:00 am at the Pulaski County Commissioner’s office

45 S. Lumpkin St., Hawkinsville, GA 31036
