Fulton County Government's Department of Public Works has issued an Invitation to Bid (ITB) for Colilert Reagent 24 and Colilert Reagent 18 Supplies, seeking to establish an indefinite quantity, firm fixed price contract for water testing reagents. The procurement is specifically for nine line items including 28 cases of 120 ML vessels with Sodium Thiosulfate, 30 cases of Colilert Reagent 18 Hr, and 2 cases of Colilert Reagent 24 Hr. These reagents are critical for conducting monthly water sample analyses to comply with drinking water and National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits. The bid was posted on July 29, 2025, with proposals due on August 26, 2025, at 11:00 AM. The contract will span one year, commencing in 2026, with potential for two additional one-year renewal terms. Evaluation criteria will focus on responsiveness, contractor responsibility, and lowest total cost, with the County reserving the right to award multiple contracts. Bidders must submit comprehensive compliance documentation to be considered.

The solicitation includes specific non-discrimination provisions with work category availability designated as 11.49% Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) and 2.62% Female Business Enterprise (FBE). Potential bidders must complete and submit several compliance forms, including a Promise of Non-Discrimination and a Schedule of Intended Subcontractor Utilization. While the total contract amount is not explicitly stated, the bid includes detailed unit pricing requirements for each line item. The procurement appears designed to provide flexibility for multiple vendors while maintaining strict compliance with local governmental procurement standards. Although no incumbent vendors are mentioned, the specificity of the reagent requirements suggests a technical procurement targeting specialized water testing supply vendors with demonstrated expertise in environmental monitoring equipment and supplies.
