Car washes-MM-MA

The Alabama Department of Forensic Sciences is requesting proposals for monthly car wash services under a one-year master agreement with annual renewals, with proposals due September 24, 2026 and a contract period extending through September 30, 2031. Pricing must be fixed for the life of the contract, though suppliers may request increases if material or labor costs rise significantly, provided such increases do not exceed the greater of industry-specific price-index increases or CPI and cannot exceed 5% of annual contract cost.

The scope covers monthly car wash services for five vehicles at the Montgomery Medical facility, 8160 AUM Drive, Montgomery, Alabama: two 2006–2007 Chevrolet Impalas, one 2008 Chevrolet Impala, one 2009 Ford Pickup Truck, and one 2008 Ford Van. Responses must be submitted electronically through Alabama Buys with cost information for each line item.

The total not-to-exceed contract value is $25,000 across the maximum five-year term. The Alabama Department of Forensic Sciences will consider budget constraints when processing awards and must stay within budget when awarding purchase orders.

All suppliers must comply with Alabama state law requirements, including registration with the Alabama Secretary of State for foreign entities, E-Verify enrollment verification, and state and local sales tax certification. Adherence to the Beason-Hammon Alabama Taxpayer and Citizen Protection Act is required. The state reserves the right to analyze cost realism and price reasonableness and may request written proof of supplier qualifications, including manufacturer authorizations and certificates of insurance.
