Opportunity Summary

Title: Replacement of Transit Scissor Advantage Lift
Organization: City of Torrance
Location: Torrance, California, US

The City of Torrance is seeking qualified vendors to remove, dispose of, and replace an in-ground Rotary V-Rex Scissor Advantage Lift at the Torrance Transit System’s garage. The existing lift, acquired in 1998, must be replaced with a certified Rotary lift or equivalent that complies with Federal Transit Administration standards and OSHA regulations. This $250,000 project is federally funded and adheres to Buy America Standards.

Key details include:

  • Bid Due Date: March 16, 2026
  • Pre-Bid Meeting: February 18, 2026
  • QA Deadline: February 25, 2026
  • Scope of Work: The project involves complete removal and disposal of the old lift, installation of a new lift, necessary inspections, and adherence to safety and regulatory standards. Vendors must also conduct ground-penetrating radar surveys as the city lacks as-built drawings.
  • Certifications Required: All lifts must be Automotive Lift Institute (ALI) Certified.

This turn-key project does not require any work from the City of Torrance and is expected to be ready for operation upon completion. Vendors must ensure that all equipment and products are new and come with standard industry warranties, while training for maintenance staff is also required.
