This procurement is for a 12-month period beginning January 1, 2026, and ending December 31, 2026, covering 24 maintenance units in districts D03, D05, D07, D08, and D58. Bidders must provide crushed stone that meets DOTD MS Spec 274-006 (Revised 7/13/2023) and be listed on the Approved Materials List for Aggregates prior to bid opening.

The contract includes provisions for Louisiana and U.S. product preferences, with bidders eligible for a ten percent price preference for products produced, manufactured, or assembled in Louisiana, contingent upon having a workforce comprising at least 50% Louisiana residents. Additionally, a five percent preference applies to U.S.-manufactured products. No specific incumbent vendors are mentioned, and the contract does not guarantee specific quantities, with DOTD reserving the right to increase or decrease quantities at the same price, terms, and conditions throughout the contract period. The Department may cancel the contract with 30 days' written notice or terminate for cause with 10 days' notice for unsatisfactory performance. Bidders are strongly encouraged to accept Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) payments, with payment due within 30 days of invoice receipt or delivery.
