This addendum is issued by the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division for Invitation for Bid No. 304T-26-830A1.1 for storage tanks, with the Texas Department of Transportation identified as a major customer. The addendum extends the bid response due date from April 14, 2026, to April 23, 2026. The solicitation encompasses eleven line items across three categories: polyethylene storage tanks (500-525 gallon horizontal and 1,235-1,250 gallon elliptical), nine vertical asphalt storage tanks in 8,000-gallon capacity with various electrical configurations, and ten 500-barrel frac tank trailers with 21,000-gallon capacity. All products must be new, unused, latest model in current production, and delivered statewide on a FOB Destination basis with shipping included in pricing. The original solicitation was posted March 19, 2026, with questions submission deadline of March 27, 2026, and responses to questions due April 1, 2026. No site visits or bidders' conferences are specified. The contract commences upon Notice of Award and automatically expires June 30, 2027, with renewal options available through June 30, 2030.

Respondents must provide firm, all-inclusive, fixed pricing per unit for each line item and factor in a 1.5% Texas SmartBuy administrative fee. Warranty coverage must extend a minimum of one year from product acceptance or the manufacturer's standard warranty, whichever is longer, with all parts, labor, and materials at no charge. Award will be made to the vendor providing best value, with different line items potentially awarded to different vendors based on lowest price per comparable tank capacity. No set-aside designations or incumbent contractor information is specified. Respondents must maintain minimum commercial general liability coverage of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $500,000 combined single limit for automobile liability, with proof of insurance required within five business days of award notification. The procurement does not establish minimum purchase volumes; quantities listed (approximately 26 individual units) are estimates based on previous one-year usage data. Respondents must acknowledge receipt of this addendum by signing and returning it with their response, as failure to do so may result in disqualification.
