CONTRACT: Pedal Truck Number 2 Heating Oil Supply and Delivery

The New Hampshire Department of Administrative Services is seeking a vendor to provide #2 heating oil supply and delivery services for various state agency locations across Districts 1 and 3, with a specific focus on Coos County. The contract, identified as Bid #3058-26, will commence on September 1, 2025, or upon execution by the Governor and Executive Council, and will run for two years with an option for a one-year extension. Bidders must provide #2 heating oil for 13 tank locations with sizes ranging from 275 to 2,000 gallons, using both automatic and will-call delivery options. Pricing will be structured as a markup over the No. 2 Oil Boston, MA LOW price as posted in the Oil Price Information Service (OPIS) Oil Price Daily sheet, with mark-ups not exceeding four decimal places and including all transportation costs, taxes, and fees. Vendors must be capable of servicing all listed state locations, provide environmental data, maintain appropriate insurance, and comply with workers' compensation and state regulations. The bid is due on July 23, 2025, at 9:00 AM Eastern Time, with submissions evaluated based on their ability to meet delivery specifications, pricing structure, and comprehensive service capabilities.

While no specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned in the documentation, the bid requires vendors to have robust operational capabilities across multiple state facilities. The procurement covers locations for multiple state departments, including the Department of Business & Economic Affairs, Department of Natural & Cultural Resources, Department of Transportation Highway Maintenance, and Environmental Services. Delivery requirements are nuanced, with some tanks requiring underground delivery, others needing pedal truck delivery, and specific instructions for delivery frequency and volume. The state reserves the right to add or delete locations throughout the contract period, providing flexibility in the procurement approach. Although a specific total contract value is not detailed, the bid covers an estimated annual usage between 500 and 1,100 gallons per location, suggesting a potentially significant annual fuel procurement value. Vendors must demonstrate technical competence in fuel delivery, environmental compliance, and the ability to provide comprehensive service across diverse state infrastructure locations.
