About this file

This is a re-procurement memorandum from the Orange County Transportation Authority regarding Invitation for Bids (IFB) 250457 for Miscellaneous Auto and Shop Supplies. The original solicitation, IFB 250325, was released on May 4, 2026, with bids due by 11:00 a.m. on the same date. The contract is for a two-year term with a budget of $500,000. The re-solicitation will be released on August 4, 2026, through the OPENGOV platform with bid submissions due by September 1, 2026.

The original IFB 250325 received five bid submissions from American Material Company ($388,646.43), Audras Limited Liability Company ($461,843.87), Golden State Fasteners & Supply, Inc. ($647,592.79), Jamison Transportation Products ($328,587.61), and Omni Western Incorporated ($318,310.19). Although Omni Western Incorporated submitted the lowest bid, the firm identified multiple errors on the Price Summary Sheet (Exhibit B), including incorrect part numbers and brand names on lines 31, 32, 33, 34, 55, 75, 83, 89, and 93. Due to these deficiencies, no award was made, and the Senior Buyer and Project Manager determined that the requisition required re-solicitation. The Price Summary Sheet was revised by the Project Manager prior to issuing the new solicitation as IFB 250457.
