Limerock_Pricing_Response_Form.docx

This is a pricing response form for an Invitation to Bid (ITB 2026-004) issued by Gainesville Regional Utilities (GRU) for the supply and delivery of limerock to support roadway stabilization and utility construction projects across Alachua County and Graceville City, Florida. The solicitation seeks a qualified vendor to provide approximately 9,000 tons of limerock annually, with deliveries made to GRU's Eastside Operations Center or designated locations on an as-needed basis. All limerock must conform to Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Section 911 specifications with a maximum moisture content of 15% by weight at delivery. Bids are due by 4:00 pm on Monday, November 17, 2025, submitted through GRU's e-Procurement Portal. The contract term runs from December 1, 2025, through November 30, 2028, with options to renew for two additional one-year periods and a potential six-month extension.

The pricing response form requires bidders to submit an all-inclusive unit price per ton that encompasses material costs, loading, hauling, delivery, dumping, and moisture control, with no separate fuel surcharges or adjustments permitted. Bidders must provide detailed information regarding their limerock source, including the mine or producer name and address, FDOT source pit number, weigh station location, and delivery truck load capacity in tons per load. The certification section obligates bidders to confirm that all supplied material meets FDOT specifications, that unit pricing is fully inclusive of all associated costs, and that deliveries will be accompanied by proper documentation. GRU reserves the right to sample and test all delivered materials, reject non-compliant deliveries, and withhold payment for incomplete or non-compliant delivery tickets. Annual pricing adjustments may be negotiated with increases capped at 5% or the lower of the Producer's Price Index or Consumer Price Index for the preceding twelve months.
