About this file
This document is a method of approach response from PPG Traffic Solutions Ennis-Flint, Inc. to the State of Arizona Department of Transportation for contract BPM005719 concerning the supply of bulk thermoplastic and thermoplastic preformed pavement markings. Ennis-Flint addresses the Department's specific requests regarding product categories, catalog maintenance, and delivery capabilities. The company clarifies that it does not maintain a standardized catalog of core items, as offerings vary by state according to individual specification requirements. Regarding delivery, Ennis-Flint confirms adequate production capacity to service all products needed within Arizona for both the state and its political subdivisions, with protocols in place to monitor orders and prioritize the state in the event of raw material interruptions.
Pricing for bulk thermoplastic materials designated as core items will be firm fixed prices as listed in Attachment No. 5, with percentage discounts available off established catalogs or manufacturer's list prices for non-core bulk thermoplastic materials. Preformed pavement markings, including primers, sealers, and accessories, will be priced as fixed percentage discounts off the most recent established catalog or manufacturer's price list. Ennis-Flint notes that the Premark by Ennis Flint Preformed Thermoplastic Pavement Markings Price List was last updated in September 2021, with updated lists to be provided upon release. The response includes revised pricing for line items 52, 63, and 64, which were repriced in 3-foot sections rather than per package as requested by the Department.
