Aggregate

Reeves County, Texas is soliciting sealed bids through an Invitation to Bid (ITB) for the procurement of aggregate materials for road and bridge construction purposes. The procurement consists of two line items: Type Grade 3S aggregate (estimated 6,500 cubic yards) and Type Grade 4S aggregate (estimated 11,000 cubic yards), with delivery on a pickup-only basis from vendor stockpiles. All aggregate materials must comply with Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) requirements, including specific gradation standards, Los Angeles abrasion limits, magnesium sulfate soundness testing, and coarse aggregate angularity specifications as outlined in Item 302 of the specifications. Vendors must provide analysis demonstrating that stockpiles meet these requirements, with testing conducted at vendor expense prior to first pickup or delivery. The County reserves the right to award line items to different vendors based on lowest and best bid determinations, and may consider pickup and delivery locations and associated hauling costs in evaluating bids. Sealed bids must be submitted to the Reeves County Purchasing Department, 1714 Schmidt Drive, Pecos, Texas 79772, by 11:30 AM Central Standard Time on Friday, February 13, 2026, with opening scheduled for 11:35 AM the same day. Questions regarding the bid must be submitted via email to bidquestions@reevescounty.org by Tuesday, February 10, 2026, and the tentative award date is 10:00 AM Central Standard Time on Monday, February 23, 2026, at the Reeves County Commissioners' Court.

The bid packet does not identify specific set-asides or restrictions on bidder types based on disadvantaged enterprise status. All pricing must be fixed for the contract duration with no price increases permitted, and if the successful bidder reduces prices to other customers during the contract term, those reduced rates must be extended to Reeves County. The resulting contract will be effective upon ordinance award, beginning January 1, 2026, or later, and terminating on March 28, 2026, with the County reserving the right to renew the contract for two additional one-year periods under identical terms and conditions, or to extend it month-to-month for up to three additional months, both requiring written authorization from the Purchasing Agent. No bonds are required, as payment terms are net 30 days following delivery completion. Successful bidders must submit a vendor acknowledgement form signed by an authorized representative, a conflict of interest questionnaire, a non-collusion affidavit, and proof of workers' compensation insurance. The bid packet does not disclose estimated dollar values or budget ranges for this procurement, and the County reserves the right to reject all bids and terminate the procurement process at any time without commitment to ordering the estimated quantities.
