Written by GovTribe AI ·

This is an addendum (#1) to RFP No. 452-25-BLC009 issued by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) for Motor Fuels Laboratory Testing and Analysis services. The addendum addresses technical questions regarding alternative test methods for fuel testing, with proposals due on January 24, 2025, at 2:00 PM CZT.

The addendum specifically addresses alternative testing methods, with TDLR's Fuel Metering and Quality (FMQ) division approving ASTM D4052 as an alternative test method for determining fuel density, while denying the use of ASTM D4737 as an alternative method due to incompatibility with samples and reduced accuracy compared to current test methods (ASTM D613 and ASTM D6890). The addendum requires acknowledgment through a signed copy included with the respondent's proposal submittal.

ADDENDUM #1

DATE:1/14/2025
RFP No.:452-25-BLC009
TITLE:Motor Fuels Laboratory Testing and Analysis

PROPOSAL DEADLINE: 01/24/2025 at 2:00 PM CZT

ADDENDUM ITEM #1:

Tajah Liddy, CTCM/CTCD Contract Administrator

Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation Contracting and Procurement Services P.O. Box 12157, Austin, TX 78711 Email: bids@tdlr.texas.gov

1. QUESTION: Page 9, Section 2.0, Paragraph 2.1.1. Will alternative test methods be permissible? More specifically, ASTM D4052 in place of ASTM D1298, and ASTM D4737 in place of ASTM D612/D6890?

ANSWER:

· FMQ proposes that we allow ASTM D4052 as an alternative test method for determining fuel density in the current RFP. Additionally, we recommend evaluating the potential of adopting D4052 as our preferred test method for fuel density assessments in future specifications.

· FMQ recommends denying the use of ASTM D4737 as an alternative test method. It is incompatible with most of our samples and offers significantly less accuracy compared to the current test methods (ASTM D613 and ASTM D6890) in use.

RECEIPT OF ADDENDUM NO. 1 of RFP NO. 452-25-BLC009 THE RESPONDENT’S PROPOSAL SUBMITTAL MUST INCLUDE SIGNED COPY OF THIS ADDENDUM AS ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF RECEIPT.
