BPA - CSMS bulk lubricants

The Michigan National Guard is issuing a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.603, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued.

A Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) will be established for bulk petroleum, oil and lubricants for the Michigan Army National Guard. A BPA is not a binding contract but an agreement; thus prices must be set prior to any orders being placed against the BPA. Additionally, either party has the choice to terminate or re-negotiate an agreement provided a 30-day notification is given. BPAs period of performance is usually for a five-year period unless terminated by either party or the BPA Master dollar limit has been met.

The government is looking for qualified companies to provide bulk petroleum, oil and lubricants to the Michigan Army National Guard. Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPA) will be established with three companies that are able to meet our requirements. These companies will be required to deliver POL primarily to CSMS at the JFHQ in Lansing, Michigan. However, the BPA is available for any Michigan National Guard unit for delivery in Michigan. Delivery dates will begin as early as January 1, 2019.

If interested in establishing a BPA with the Michigan Army National Guard, please complete the attached Quote by Contractor. Prices should be as low as or lower than those charged to your most favored customers, including any discounts for prompt payment.
