About this opportunity
The City of Sulphur Springs, located in Hopkins County, Texas, is soliciting bids for a 12-month contract to supply commercial grade liquid aluminum sulfate solution (liquid alum) for its water treatment processes. The bid is scheduled to close on September 16, 2025, at 1:00 P.M., with bids to be submitted electronically through BidNet Direct. The contract period will run from October 8, 2025, through October 7, 2026, with a potential one-year extension option. The city anticipates purchasing approximately 650 dry tons of liquid alum during the contract period, with deliveries to be made to either the Water Treatment Plant or Wastewater Treatment Plant within three working days of request. The liquid alum must comply with AWWA Standard B403-09, with specific compositional requirements including a minimum of 8.0% water-soluble Al2O3 and strict limitations on iron and water-insoluble content. The contract will be awarded to the lowest, responsive, and responsible bidder, with deliveries to be made F.O.B. Destination in Sulphur Springs, Texas, and emergency deliveries required within 24 hours of order.
The procurement opportunity encourages participation from Minority and Women Business Enterprise (MWBE) firms, with a local vendor preference in the event of a tie bid. Vendors must complete and submit two critical compliance documents: the Texas Ethics Commission Conflict of Interest Questionnaire (Form CIQ) and the Certificate of Interested Parties (Form 1295). The CIQ requires disclosure of any business relationships with local government officers that could result in taxable income exceeding $2,500 in a 12-month period or gifts with an aggregate value over $100. The Form 1295 mandates detailed disclosure of interested parties and must be completed through the Texas Ethics Commission's website before City Council can consider contract approval. The city is tax-exempt, so no taxes should be included in bid pricing. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the anticipated purchase of 650 dry tons of liquid alum suggests a substantial contract value for the selected vendor, with potential for extension based on performance and city needs.
