The state of Alabama, specifically Coffee County, is seeking a hardware store vendor to provide a comprehensive range of supplies for various municipal maintenance and operational needs. The procurement opportunity requires a vendor located within 30 miles of 295 Highway 20 East in Tuscumbia, AL 35674, to ensure quick and efficient supply delivery. The solicitation encompasses multiple supply categories including roadway and bridge supplies, repairs and maintenance materials, housekeeping and custodial items, repair and servicing supplies, safety and security equipment, and tools priced under $500. Electronic quote submission is mandated, with a posting date of October 2, 2025, and a firm response deadline of October 7, 2025. The primary objective is to establish a local supplier capable of meeting the county's diverse operational supply requirements with proximity-based responsiveness and competitive pricing.

While specific set-aside designations or disadvantaged enterprise requirements are not explicitly stated in the opportunity description, the geographic restriction of vendor location suggests a preference for local businesses serving Coffee County. The procurement appears to be an open competitive solicitation without apparent restrictions on vendor type, potentially allowing small, medium, and large local suppliers to compete. No incumbent vendor information or current contract details are provided, and the document does not specify a precise budget range or potential contract value. The procurement seems structured as a quote-based procurement with potential for ongoing or periodic supply agreements, focused on ensuring the county has immediate access to essential maintenance and operational supplies through a conveniently located vendor.
