Sunflower County, Mississippi is soliciting sealed bids for annual supplies and services for fiscal years 2025-2026, with proposals due by 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday, September 2, 2025, at the Sunflower County Courthouse in Indianola. The procurement encompasses a comprehensive range of road and bridge infrastructure services and materials, including bridge repair and construction, hot mixes, crushed limestone, fuels, grader blades, gravel, lumber, heavy equipment (bulldozers, dirt moving equipment), custom hauling, tractor services, propane tanks, liquid asphalt, roadside spraying, liability insurance, sign making materials, and soil cement. Contractors must submit detailed unit pricing for various infrastructure-related tasks, with pricing structures varying by cubic yard, linear foot, ton, or acre. The contract period will span from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2026, with the Board of Supervisors reserving significant flexibility in bid evaluation, including the right to reject any and all bids or terminate contracts during the period. Bidders must comply with current Mississippi state specifications for State Aid Road and bridge construction, and are encouraged to provide comprehensive pricing information and company details.

The solicitation does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. While no specific total contract value is stated, the comprehensive nature of the procurement suggests a potentially significant annual budget for infrastructure and maintenance services. The bid documents include a W-9 form, indicating standard tax reporting requirements for potential vendors. Interested contractors must provide detailed contact information and are allowed to submit bids for periods potentially shorter or longer than the specified timeframe. The county's procurement approach allows for flexibility, with potential for per-purchase opportunities in addition to term contracts. Contact persons for different aspects of the bid include Michelle Boyles (Purchasing Clerk), Tim Howell and Earnest Ross (Road Managers), and Ron Cassada (County Engineer), who can provide additional information about bid specifications, submission details, and compliance requirements.
