RFB-130094 - Replacement Broom Cassettes for VAMMAS Mulit-Function Snow Plows

Summary of Specifications:
INTRODUCTION: Through this Request for Bids (RFB), the Wayne County Airport Authority (Airport Authority) hereby invites businesses who meet the qualifications set forth herein to submit Bids to provide replacement broom cassettes for VAMMAS multi-function snow plows on an as-needed basis. 

GENERAL INFORMATION: During the winter months, the Airport Authority's Maintenance and Fleet Services Department is responsible for snow and ice removal on Detroit Metro Airport's runways, taxiways and public roadways. The Airport Authority currently owns seven (7) high-speed, multi-function Vammas snow removal machines (Model-PSB 5500). Use of the units during the past winter seasons has reduced snow removal clearing times from 60 minutes to between 35 to 45 minutes, thereby shortening runway closure times. Therefore, procurement of replacement broom cassettes is necessary to properly maintain the Airport Authority's fleet of Vammas high-speed snow removal equipment.
