"CDIP" requests to purchase (12) Promotional Products in multiple quantities.

The City of Pennsylvania's CDIP (Community Development and Improvement Program) is conducting a micro purchase procurement for twelve promotional products in multiple quantities, posted on May 7, 2026, with a due date of May 15, 2026. This micro purchase will be awarded as a whole or by individual line item, whichever serves the City's best interests, to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. The promotional products are associated with two custom logos—one black lettered and one white lettered design—with example images and item specifications provided in the bid attachments. Bidders must submit quotations for all twelve items to be considered eligible for award, and no delivery or provision of services shall commence until the department provides official written notification to the selected vendor. The evaluation criteria emphasize price competitiveness combined with the responsiveness and responsibility of the bidder, with the City retaining discretion to optimize value and cost-effectiveness through flexible award methodology. Award will be based on competitive bidding, and prospective sellers are required to meet all specified terms and conditions outlined in the procurement documents to be deemed responsive and responsible.

The solicitation includes an LGBTQ Applicant Data Form, indicating that LGBTQ-owned or LGBTQ-focused businesses are encouraged to participate and may be eligible for consideration under applicable set-aside or preference provisions. The procurement documents include standard terms and conditions, a seller checklist, consent and authorization forms, and logo specifications that bidders must reference for complete contractual obligations and performance standards. No specific budget range or award value is explicitly stated in the available documents; however, the designation as a micro purchase indicates this is a lower-dollar-value procurement subject to simplified acquisition procedures. There is no mention of incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor are there detailed technology integration requirements specified in the provided materials. Interested vendors should carefully review all attachments, including the Terms and Conditions document and the Seller Micro Purchase Checklist, to ensure full compliance with submission requirements and contractual obligations prior to the May 15, 2026 deadline.
