About this file

This file comprises a Request for Bid (RFB) #645-RFB-1639-2025 issued by the Iowa Department of Transportation seeking fuel vendors to provide transportation fuel deliveries to three maintenance garage locations in Charles City, Elkader, and Latimer. The procurement solicits competitive pricing for specific fuel types including ULS Diesel #1 and #2, bio-diesel additive, U87E10 gasohol, and seasonal fuel additives for underground storage tanks. The Charles City location requires 12,450 gallons of ULS Diesel #1, 59,100 gallons of ULS Diesel #2, 3,565 gallons of bio-diesel additive, and 46,760 gallons of U87E10, with additional quantities specified for Elkader and Latimer locations. The contract period will run from July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026, with an option to renew for five additional years in twelve-month increments. Bidders must submit winter and summer additive specifications, a BQ-9000 Producer Certification, and indicate their terminal location for pricing. The bid opens on April 1, 2025, and closes on April 23, 2025, at 1:00 PM CDT.

Bidders must meet mandatory requirements including providing comprehensive fuel specifications and certifications, with award consideration based on factors such as proposed staffing, time schedules, past work performance, and work capacity. Payment terms are established at Net 60, with the Iowa DOT qualifying as a tax-exempt agency. The procurement methodology structures the contract as a fuel margin per gallon added to the DOT's daily rack pricing, allowing for flexibility in pricing mechanisms. No specific set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent types are explicitly mentioned. The attached supplemental documents, including the NREL Biodiesel Handling and Use Guide and fuel specification requirements, indicate technical complexity requiring vendors to demonstrate specialized knowledge of fuel handling and environmental compliance, reliability of supply, and competitive pricing.
