25-017 FY26 water treatment chemicals

The City of Griffin in Spalding County, Georgia is soliciting bids for water treatment chemicals through Invitation to Bid (ITB) 25-017 FY26, which is structured as a line item bid allowing chemical manufacturers and water treatment chemical suppliers to submit prices for multiple chemical products. The procurement is designed to establish a contract with renewable options for water treatment chemical procurement. Potential bidders must carefully review the attached documents, including the primary bid document (25_017 v1 Water Treatment Chemicals.docx), an addendum with questions and answers, and the price submittal spreadsheet. The bid was posted on June 3, 2025, with a submission deadline of July 1, 2025, providing interested vendors approximately one month to prepare and submit their proposals. Evaluation criteria and specific technical requirements are detailed in the attached documentation, which vendors must thoroughly examine to ensure compliance. The solicitation appears to be open to all qualified chemical manufacturers and suppliers who can meet the city's water treatment chemical specifications.

While the documentation does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged business enterprises, the line item bid structure suggests flexibility for various types of vendors. No incumbent vendors are directly identified in the available materials. The procurement does not specify a precise budget range or total contract value, leaving financial parameters open for competitive bidding. The contract appears to be structured with renewable options, indicating potential long-term engagement for the successful vendor(s). Interested suppliers will need to complete the price submittal spreadsheet and demonstrate their capability to provide high-quality water treatment chemicals that meet the City of Griffin's technical requirements. The multi-line item approach allows vendors to bid on specific chemicals, potentially enabling multiple vendors to be awarded portions of the contract based on their specific product offerings and pricing.
