Aluminum Highway Traffic Signs

The Wisconsin Aluminum Highway Traffic Signs state-wide contract provides comprehensive procurement options for various traffic signage products, specifically aluminum signs with reflective sheeting technologies. The vehicle covers Type IV and Type XI reflective sheeting on multiple aluminum thicknesses (0.040", 0.080", 0.100", and 0.125"), enabling state and local government entities to acquire standard highway signs, delineator reflectors, folding signs, and specialized mounting hardware. Products are available through different delivery schedules, including standard 28-calendar day delivery and expedited 5-calendar day options, with pricing structured to accommodate both small and large quantity orders.

The multi-award vehicle is managed by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation and currently includes three prime contractors: Decker Supply Co., Bureau of Correctional Enterprises (DOC-BCE), and TAPCO. The contract, originally awarded on May 23, 2018, has been consistently renewed with the current extension running through May 22, 2024. The vehicle is a cooperative purchasing contract that allows Wisconsin municipalities, counties, cities, villages, school districts, and federally recognized tribal entities to utilize the contract. While specific total contract values fluctuate annually, recent extensions show aggregate pricing ranging between $1.2 million to $2.5 million across sign categories, with comprehensive pricing that includes packing, transportation, labor, and insurance charges.
