About this opportunity

Franklin County, Ohio is requesting bids on calibration services for specialized asphalt laboratory equipment at the Asphalt Lab in Columbus, with proposals due September 30, 2026. Bidders must submit proposals covering all equipment line items; partial bids are not accepted.

The scope requires onsite calibration across two visits approximately six months apart — Fall 2026 and Spring 2027. Visit #1 covers eleven pieces of equipment: two Anton Paar Dynamic Shear Rheometers (DSRs), two Cannon Bending Beam Rheometers (BBRs), two Prentex Pressure Aging Vessels (PAVs), one Brookfield Rotational Viscosity device, two Cox & Sons Rolling Thin Film Ovens (RTFOs), and one ATS Vacuum Degassing Oven. Visit #2 adds one additional Cox & Sons RTFO, one Prentex Vacuum Degassing Oven, and one additional Anton Paar DSR. All calibration must comply with AASHTO specifications including T-315, T-350, and T-316 standards. The Anton Paar DSR #3 requires calibration to both T-315 and T-350 specifications and must be calibrated for rotational viscosity per AASHTO T-316. All calibration equipment must be NIST traceable with current calibration records. Equipment remains onsite; no transportation is required.

No contract value, contract term beyond the two-visit scope, set-asides, incumbent contractor, or evaluation criteria are specified in the source materials.

Opportunity text

Calibration of all equipment below is to be done onsite in two (2) separate visits approximately 6 months apart to the Asphalt Lab in Columbus, OH. All calibration equipment must be NIST traceable with up-to-date calibration records. To be considered successful bid, you must bid on all lines that are provided. Visit #1 in the Fall of 2026

  1. Calibration of Anton Paar DSR #1 to AASHTO Specification
  2. Calibration of Anton Paar DSR #2 to AASHTO Specification
  3. Calibration of Cannon BBR #1 to AASHTO Specification
  4. Calibration of Cannon BBR #2 to AASHTO Specification
  5. Calibration of Prentex PAV #1 to AASHTO Specification
  6. Calibration of Prentex PAV #2 to AASHTO Specification
  7. Calibration of Brookfield RV #1 to AASHTO Specification
  8. Calibration of Cox & Sons RTFO #1 to AASHTO Specification
  9. Calibration of Cox & Sons RTFO #2 to AASHTO Specification
  10. Calibration of ATS Vacuum Degassing Oven #1 to AASHTO Specification
  11. Calibration of Anton Paar DSR #3 to AASHTO T-315 and T-350 Specifications. This DSR also has the capability of running the rotational viscosity following AASHTO T-316, which will also need calibrated.

Visit #2 in the Spring of 2027

  1. Calibration of Anton Paar DSR #1 to AASHTO Specification
  2. Calibration of Anton Paar DSR #2 to AASHTO Specification
  3. Calibration of Cannon BBR #1 to AASHTO Specification
  4. Calibration of Cannon BBR #2 to AASHTO Specification
  5. Calibration of Prentex PAV #1 to AASHTO Specification
  6. Calibration of Prentex PAV #2 to AASHTO Specification
  7. Calibration of Brookfield RV #1 to AASHTO Specification
  8. Calibration of Cox & Sons RTFO #1 to AASHTO Specification
  9. Calibration of Cox & Sons RTFO #2 to AASHTO Specification
  10. Calibration of Cox & Sons RTFO #3 to AASHTO Specification
  11. Calibration of ATS Vacuum Degassing Oven #1 to AASHTO Specification
  12. Calibration of Prentex Vacuum Degassing Oven #2 to AASHTO Specification
  13. Calibration of Anton Paar DSR #3 to AASHTO T-315 and T-350 Specifications. This DSR also has the capability of running the rotational viscosity following AASHTO T-316, which will also need calibrated.
  14. Calibration of Anton Paar DSR #4 to AASHTO Specification
