Fiberglass Drainage Pipe and Parts

The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) is soliciting quotes for fiberglass drainage pipe and parts through an Invitation for Quote (IFQ605SW21000284) targeted at the Southwest District, specifically for use in Greene County. The procurement seeks qualified vendors to provide Reinforced Thermosetting Resin Pipe (RTRP) system components that meet ASTM D 2996 standards, with specific requirements including a minimum short time rupture strength hoop tensile stress of 30,000 psi and concrete gray coloration. The drainage system components include pipes ranging from 3 to 14 inches in diameter, scupper outlets, grates, collection basins, and associated fittings, which must be fabricated and installed according to design plans A5218 and A5219. Vendors must certify their end products meet the detailed technical specifications and provide manufacturer certification for each lot. The quote submission period runs from August 20, 2020, to September 3, 2020, at 7:00 PM GMT, with a required delivery date of October 19, 2020, to the Springfield MoDOT facility at 3025 E. Kearney Street. Quotes will be evaluated based on lowest price and compliance with mandatory specifications, with pricing to include all packing, handling, and shipping charges FOB destination.

The solicitation encourages participation from Minority Business Enterprises (MBE) and Women Business Enterprises (WBE), with target participation rates of 10% MBE and 5% WBE through subcontractors, suppliers, joint ventures, or other meaningful arrangements. Service-Disabled Veteran (SDV) businesses are also encouraged to participate. Vendors must submit quotes either electronically through the MissouriBUYS Statewide eProcurement System or via hard copy, with pricing to remain valid for 90 days from the submission end date. While no specific contract value or budget range was explicitly stated in the documents, the procurement appears to be for a comprehensive drainage system installation. The state reserves the right to award the contract to the lowest and best responsive vendor, with the potential to purchase using the state purchasing card. Payment terms will be made in arrears, with invoices to be submitted electronically to SWInvoices@modot.mo.gov. The procurement is tax-exempt from Missouri Sales Tax, Missouri Use Tax, and Federal Excise Tax.
