The City of Philadelphia is requesting quotes for asphalt release agent under a micro purchase, with quotes due July 15, 2026. The City will award as a whole or by line item to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder; sellers must quote all items to be eligible for award.

The scope consists of asphalt release agent; specific product specifications, quantities, and line-item details are not disclosed in the source materials provided. Delivery is FOB Destination Point, and no delivery or services shall occur until the City issues a purchase order.

The maximum contract value is $45,000, adjusted annually by the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers (CPI-U) from January 1, 2020, rounded to the nearest thousand dollars. The contract term is 365 days from the effective date specified in PHLContracts, terminating automatically without further notice.

Submission is through the PHLContracts eProcurement platform. Vendors must submit a completed Consent and Authorization Agreement executed in accordance with City signature requirements (corporations require signatures from a President or Vice President and a Secretary, Assistant Secretary, Treasurer, or Assistant Treasurer; LLCs, partnerships, and sole proprietorships require a partner, owner, or duly authorized signer). Failure to submit a properly executed agreement results in the quote being deemed non-responsive. Quotes must be valid for 60 days from submission and are net and exclusive of taxes.
