About this file

Amendment 2 is a procurement document issued by the Maryland Department of General Services, Office of State Procurement, for an Invitation for Bid (IFB) number BPM048024 / DGSR5600026 concerning Oils, Grease and Lubricants. The amendment addresses several bidder questions, clarifies bid form details, and provides guidance on acceptable product specifications. Key clarifications include allowing alternative packaging (two 6-unit cases instead of one 12-unit case), confirming brand acceptability based on API/ILSAC certifications, and indicating that the Bid Form has been revised on 3/18/2025 to correct regional descriptions.

The document reveals that two current contracts exist with PPC Lubricants and Larry Maurice Douglas, Jr., and that the state does not guarantee minimum or maximum order volumes. Bidders are instructed to post any additional questions in the Discussion + Q&A forum in eMMA. The amendment emphasizes that supplies will be requested by multiple agencies and jurisdictions throughout the state, and brands must meet specified technical criteria. No specific pricing, set-asides, or funding details are provided in this amendment, which primarily serves to answer potential bidders' questions and provide clarification on the solicitation requirements.

ATTENTION ALL BIDDERS:

The following questions have been received in regard to this solicitation:

Q1. In Appendix 1, the Bid Form, each Region tab is specific to just one Region, that being the one which includes Dorchester County. Can you update all the tabs with a different description in each one so we can indicate which Regions we can deliver to?

Q2. Is Amalie Oil/ Wolf's Head Oil for oils and greases an acceptable brand for the purposes of this Bid?

Q3. Some of the oil/lubricants manufacturers no longer make some of the products in cases of 12. They have migrated to producing cases of 6 instead. Would it be acceptable to quote on 2 cases of 6 each for the line items which ask for a case of 12?

Q4. Is there a current contract for Oils, Grease and Lubricants?
