Description

The intent of this solicitation is to award an Agency Specific Term Contract to qualified vendors to furnish and deliver marine repair parts and accessories to the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) Ferry Division. With origins dating to the mid-1920s, the NCDOT's Ferry Division runs the second largest state-run ferry system in the United States. An estimated 800,000 vehicles and 1.8 million passengers, each year, cross the rivers and sounds of Eastern North Carolina, making the ferry system a vital lifeline for those who live and work in the region and an economic necessity for businesses. Ferry operations involve more than 20 ferries on seven regular routes across the Currituck and Pamlico sounds as well as the Cape Fear, Neuse and Pamlico rivers. Two routes – Hatteras-Ocracoke and Ocracoke-Cedar Island – are officially part of The Outer Banks National Scenic Byway. The ferry system also plays a crucial role during coastal emergencies, moving thousands of people out of harm's way in advance of hurricanes. An emergency route also runs between Stumpy Point and Rodanthe, when N.C. 12 is damaged due to storms and other issues. The Contract shall have an initial term of five (5) years, beginning on the date of final Contract execution (the “Effective Date”) In addition, the State reserves the right to extend a contract term after the last active term. Bids shall be submitted in accordance with the terms and conditions of this IFB and any addenda issued hereto.
