A 3% local preference applies to purchases of real or personal property. The agreement will serve multiple City departments on an as-needed basis for unit costs less than $500.

The estimated annual agreement value is $50,000. The initial contract term runs October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2028, with the City reserving the right to extend the agreement for up to three additional one-year periods subject to mutual written agreement and satisfactory vendor performance. The City does not guarantee a minimum spend value and will purchase on an as-needed basis. The City is exempt from Texas Sales Tax and Federal Excise Tax, and payment terms are Net 30 upon receipt of a complete and accurate invoice.

Bidders must complete a Bidder Information Form, Pricing Form, Conflict of Interest Questionnaire (if applicable), Local Preference Declaration (if applicable), and Federal Vendor Certification Form. A virtual public opening will occur immediately following the deadline via Microsoft Teams. The anticipated award date is October 2026.
