About this file

This document is an Invitation to Bid (ITB) issued by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) for Aluminum Materials, specifically targeting various aluminum products including angles, channels, bars, I-beams, plates, rods, sheets, tubes, and zee bars for state and maintenance use. The bid (DOT-ITB-26-9011-CA) is scheduled for bid submission by October 7, 2025, at 10:00 AM EST, with a contract term of two years from the award date and potential renewal options up to three years. The solicitation covers estimated quantities of aluminum materials with specific dimensions, alloy types (predominantly 6061-T6 and 5052-H32), and delivery locations in Oviedo, Lake City, and statewide maintenance facilities, with a minimum order quantity for each item type.

Pricing for the materials is established per linear foot or pound, with unit prices varying based on specific dimensions and alloy composition. The bid includes provisions for in-state vendor preference, requiring vendors to complete an In-State Preference Form, and mandates compliance with various state regulations including drug-free workplace certification, scrutinized companies lists verification, and E-Verify employment eligibility requirements. Vendors must provide detailed material specifications, mill analysis certifications, and adhere to strict quality standards, with the potential for rejection of entire lots if sample testing fails to meet ASTM specifications. The solicitation allows for potential price adjustments due to extreme market volatility and emphasizes the state's commitment to fair, competitive procurement practices.
