ELBOW 90° SILICONE 4PLY 4. 2X9 - ref 2098749

Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority (DART), the transit agency serving Dallas County, Texas, is seeking to procure an Elbow 90° Silicone 4Ply component with dimensions of 4.2x9 inches (reference number 2098749). This is a straightforward goods procurement for a specific industrial or mechanical component, with the contract opportunity posted on May 18, 2026, and a submission deadline of May 21, 2026. While the government file does not specify quantities required, delivery schedules, or detailed project timelines, vendors must understand that they will be responsible for all applicable federal, state, and local taxes, while DART maintains exemption from Texas state and local sales and use taxes. The procurement will follow DART's standard purchase order framework, which includes inspection and acceptance at destination, with payment expected within 30 days of invoice receipt or order receipt, whichever is later. Invoices must be submitted in triplicate, and all disputes will be governed by Texas law with venue in Dallas County. The Contracting Officer retains full authority to make changes to orders, modify delivery schedules with equitable adjustment provisions, and terminate agreements for default or convenience.

The procurement documents do not explicitly identify any set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, minority-owned businesses, or other restricted categories, though vendors must comply with equal opportunity employment requirements and certifications regarding foreign terrorist organizations and Israel boycott prohibitions. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the available documentation, nor is specific information provided regarding existing infrastructure or technology integration requirements. The contract opportunity files do not disclose a specific award value or budget range for this procurement. Interested vendors should note the extremely tight submission timeline of only three days from posting to deadline and should ensure full compliance with DART's standard terms and conditions as outlined in the attached purchase order documentation.
