Bulk Urea Delivery

The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) Southwest District has issued an Invitation for Bid (IFB) soliciting vendors to supply bulk Diesel Exhaust Fluid (Urea/DEF) and provide used oil retrieval services. The solicitation, numbered IFB605SW19000023, seeks a vendor to deliver bulk urea in 55-gallon or larger containers with pumping apparatus to 28 different Southwest District maintenance locations, spanning counties including Greene and Jackson. The contract requires the selected vendor to provide bulk urea delivery with containers equipped with dispensing and monitoring capabilities at fuel islands, as well as retrieve bulk used oil specifically from the Springfield District Garage and Joplin Regional Garage. The contract term will run from August 1, 2018, through July 1, 2019, with potential for three renewal periods. Vendors must submit per-gallon pricing for urea delivery to each specified location and indicate whether they will charge or pay for used oil retrieval. The bid period opens July 24, 2018, at 4:00 PM GMT and closes August 3, 2018, at 7:00 PM GMT, with all bids to be submitted electronically through the MissouriBUYS procurement system.

The solicitation encourages participation from Minority Business Enterprises (MBE) and Women Business Enterprises (WBE), with specific participation targets of 10% MBE and 5% WBE through subcontractors, suppliers, or joint ventures. Service-Disabled Veteran (SDV) businesses are also noted with preference considerations. All vendors must be registered in the MissouriBUYS system to participate, and the contract includes provisions for cooperative purchasing, allowing Missouri counties, cities, and other political entities to potentially utilize the contract terms. Delivery requirements specify FOB destination with freight prepaid, and payment terms are set at Net 30 days, with invoices to be emailed to SWInvoices@modot.mo.gov. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, pricing will be evaluated on a per-gallon basis, and MoDOT reserves the right to increase or decrease ordered quantities. The solicitation allows vendors to propose price increases for potential renewal periods, with maximum percentage increases to be specified by the bidders.
