The City of Green Bay Purchasing Department has issued a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for procurement of aluminum pipe for sewer applications. The specific procurement requires sixty 8-inch aluminum pipes, each 10 feet in length with 0.125-inch thickness, accompanied by Bauer style ball and socket male and female fittings and sixty corresponding 8-inch rubber O-rings. This solicitation was released on January 30, 2023, with an addendum dated February 7, 2023, and mandates submission by February 9, 2023, at 2:00 PM CST. Vendors may submit quotes through multiple channels including DemandStar, mail, or in-person delivery to Thomas J. Walenski at the City of Green Bay Purchasing Department. The pricing requirements stipulate that quotes must remain firm for a minimum of ninety days following the due date, with final prices to include all freight costs on an F.O.B. delivered basis to the City's Eastside Garage located at 1820 Mills Street, Green Bay, Wisconsin.

The RFQ does not specify any specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. Payment terms are established as Net 30, with vendors invited to propose early payment discounts. The City reserves significant procedural flexibility, including the right to accept or reject any quotation, award to one or more vendors on a line-item basis, and cancel the agreement with thirty days' written notice. All financial commitments are contingent upon Common Council approval and fund availability. While no specific budget range was disclosed in the documentation, the procurement involves sixty pipe units with associated fittings. Vendor quotations will become the property of the City and may be subject to public disclosure. No incumbent vendor information was identified in the available documentation, and no specific technology integration requirements were outlined in the request.
