If adequate quotes come from certified contractors, the City proceeds to award on that round. Otherwise, it posts the solicitation on its Austin Finance Online website and distributes it to all vendors registered for the applicable commodity codes.

The City names BICC General, Essex Lake, Okonite, and Rockbestos as approved manufacturers. The estimated quantity is 10,400 feet, and the City does not guarantee purchase of the listed quantities. The City reserves the right to award to the lowest price meeting minimum requirements.

Pricing must use the provided price sheet and cover all handling, shipping, and discounts on an FOB Destination basis, with freight included in the item price. Taxes must be excluded because the City is exempt from federal excise and state sales taxes. Delivery may be by vendor delivery or common carrier. A common carrier shipment does not trigger workers' compensation, employee liability, or business automobile liability insurance requirements. Submissions must include company name, authorized representative, and email address, sent to Christopher Gorski at christopher.gorski@AustinTexas.gov.

Contract terms include ERCOT critical electrical grid equipment protocols and a wage theft certification requiring City of Austin Wage Theft Training within thirty days of award.
