The Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT) is soliciting bids for a statewide traffic paint contract through RFX3160007306, with bid opening scheduled for Thursday, May 1, 2025, at 10:30 AM CST. Vendors are required to provide traffic paint on an as-needed basis, delivered F.O.B. to various MDOT locations throughout Mississippi. The proposed contract will commence on July 1, 2025, and run through June 30, 2026, with potential options for two twelve-month extensions, not to exceed a total of thirty-six months. The last day for submitting questions is Thursday, April 24, 2025, at 10:00 AM CST. Potential bidders must utilize the MAGIC Supplier Self-Service Portal to submit their proposals, which will be evaluated based on lowest pricing and compliance with specified requirements. Vendors must demonstrate the ability to maintain consistent pricing throughout the contract duration and comply with various administrative and legal stipulations, including E-Verification for employment eligibility and non-discrimination policies.

The procurement opportunity appears open to all qualified vendors, with no specific set-aside designations mentioned in the available documentation. Participants must complete registration in the MAGIC Supplier Self-Service Portal, which requires uploading necessary documentation such as W-9 forms and selecting appropriate product categories. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the contract will be contingent upon legislative appropriations and funding availability. The Mississippi Transportation Commission reserves the right to terminate the contract without penalty if funds are not forthcoming or if significant programmatic changes occur. Vendors must be prepared to provide electronic payment mechanisms and demonstrate compliance with state procurement regulations. The contract appears to be structured as an indefinite quantity, indefinite delivery arrangement, allowing MDOT to purchase traffic paint as needed throughout the contract period.
