It is the intent of these specifications, and all requirements listed herein, to obtain bids on remounted vehicles to

meet the local needs of Coweta County Fire EMS, and to obtain bids that may be easily, and completely

evaluated on an equal and competitive basis.

Because of the wide variances in types, configurations, options and models available in the industry, the

purpose of these specifications is to set a standard by which all proposals received may be evaluated, studied

and compared equitably. Vendors are required to return one (1) copy of these specifications, correctly and

completely furnishing all information requested and answering all questions attached. Any requested data

literature, drawings, etc. and detailed written lists of exceptions taken must also be enclosed.

Since bids from a number of suppliers are anticipated, and Coweta County Fire EMS cannot be expected to be

familiar with all various technical details of all vendor's products, the only adequate method of evaluation will

be to compare in this format. Vendors are cautioned that failure to submit proposals in the format specified

herein will be grounds to reject the vendors proposal and remove their bid from consideration.

Any questions for clarifications, etc. should be directed in writing by email to Contact Captain Bryan Minix

[email protected] , and responses will be furnished in writing to all prospective vendors.

Considerable time and effort has been invested to design these specifications to the specific needs of

Coweta County Fire EMS. No Exceptions to this will be allowed.

It is further understood that the vehicle described is for use by Coweta County Fire EMS in the provision of

emergency services.
