BAG, PULL, WHITE, 2. 5 Mil, 13" X 15 1/2" X 5" GUSSETT (CASE) -REF 2096833

Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority (DART) is soliciting bids for the procurement of bags with specific technical specifications: pull-type white bags with 2.5 mil thickness, measuring 13" x 15 1/2" x 5" with gussett construction, to be supplied by the case (Reference 2096833). This procurement is issued by Dallas County, Texas, and represents a straightforward goods purchase rather than a service or construction contract. The primary objective is to secure a reliable supplier capable of delivering the specified bags in quantities and timeframes that meet DART's operational requirements. Bidders must demonstrate their ability to meet strict delivery schedules, as timely delivery is deemed essential to the purchase order with failure to meet specifications grounds for rejection and contract default. The submission deadline for proposals is January 30, 2026, providing a three-day response window from the posting date of January 27, 2026. While no formal evaluation criteria beyond specification compliance are detailed in the available documentation, adherence to the technical specifications and delivery terms outlined in the Purchase Order Terms and Conditions is implicit.

The procurement documents provided do not specify set-aside designations, minority or disadvantaged enterprise restrictions, or preferences that would limit bidding eligibility to particular vendor categories. No incumbent vendors or existing contractors are identified in the available materials. Suppliers responding to this solicitation must comply with standard procurement requirements including equal employment opportunity obligations, certification of non-boycott status regarding Israel, verification of non-terrorist organization status, and agreement that neither the seller nor affiliates engage in boycott activities. Payment terms establish a 30-day cycle from invoice receipt or order receipt, whichever is later, with invoices required in triplicate containing specific documentation elements including purchase order number, item descriptions, quantities, unit prices, and extended totals. The contract is governed by Texas law with venue in Dallas County, and the contracting officer retains authority over disputes subject to appeal within 30 days. No specific budget range or award value is disclosed in the available procurement materials.
