Conservation/Parks/Oak Mtn - FY27 Bunker Sand

The State of Alabama Office of the Chief Procurement Officer is seeking bids to establish an annual agreement for bunker sand delivery to Oak Mountain State Park in Pelham, with responses due October 23, 2026. This is an all-or-none solicitation under Quick Quotes (QQ) format.

Oak Mountain State Park requires an estimated 315 tons of bunker sand throughout the contract period (November 2026 through September 30, 2027), with deliveries scheduled on demand in minimum increments of one full truckload (25 tons). The park is located at 200 Terrace Drive (off I-65 at Exit 246), Pelham, Alabama 35124, and is the sole place of performance.

Suppliers must be registered in Alabama Buys and submit responses electronically through the Alabama Buys portal. Respondents with employees in Alabama must be enrolled in E-Verify and certified for sales tax compliance under Section 41-4-142. Foreign corporations must comply with Alabama state registration requirements.

The State reserves the right to analyze cost realism and price reasonableness for all bids. Price escalation requests during contract performance are permitted only where justified by documented cost increases in industry-specific indices or the Consumer Price Index, capped at 5 percent of annual contract cost. The contract may be renewed annually by written agreement up to a total contract cost of $25,000 or five years from the effective date, whichever occurs first. The State is exempt from sales tax. Disputes are resolved through negotiation and non-binding alternative dispute resolution in Montgomery, Alabama.
