Aluminum Qualified Vendor List (QVL) - MVE

The State of Missouri, specifically through Missouri Vocational Enterprises (MVE), is issuing a Request for Proposal (RFP) to establish an Aluminum Qualified Vendor List (QVL) for potential future aluminum product procurement. This solicitation seeks to create a pre-qualified pool of aluminum product suppliers through the MissouriBUYS electronic procurement system, with the proposal period running from January 5, 2024, to January 31, 2024. Vendors must submit comprehensive responses by 2:00 PM CST on January 31, 2024, electronically uploading completed Exhibits A through J, including all required documentation and pricing pages. The procurement will be specifically associated with Clark County, Missouri (FIPS Code 29045). Vendors are required to provide detailed information about their aluminum product capabilities, with delivery terms specified as Free on Board (FOB) Destination and payment terms set at Net 45 Days. The solicitation does not specify particular line items or quantities, as its primary purpose is to establish a qualified vendor pool for future procurement needs.

The RFP is open to all vendors and does not include any specific set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are mentioned in the documentation, and there are no indicated existing infrastructure or technology requirements for integration. The total estimated contract value is not specified in the available documentation, suggesting this is primarily a pre-qualification process to create a pool of potential aluminum product suppliers. Interested vendors can direct questions to Tammy Havalias at the State of Missouri Purchasing office, contactable at 573-751-6108 or tammy.havalias@oa.mo.gov. Vendors are advised to thoroughly review all solicitation documents and complete all required exhibits to ensure a comprehensive and competitive response. The state will use the submitted information to evaluate and establish a list of qualified vendors for potential future aluminum product purchases.
