Gun Locks & Cases

The City of Austin is soliciting quotes on gun locks and lockable gun cases for the Office of Violence Prevention under IFQ 9100 DJD1012, with quotes due August 26, 2026 at 4:00 PM. This is a two-stage HUB or M/WBE preference solicitation — initial distribution goes to certified HUB or M/WBE vendors; if adequate quotes are not received, the opportunity is posted online to all registered vendors on applicable commodity codes.

The scope comprises 5,000 units of keyed 15-inch cable gun locks in black and 500 units of keyed steel lockable gun cases with 10-inch cables. Quantities are estimates; the City does not guarantee purchase of the stated amounts. All quotes must be submitted on an FOB Destination, prepaid basis with all freight and handling charges included in unit pricing. Award will be made to the lowest responsive offer meeting any stated minimum requirements, with the City reserving the right to evaluate on individual line items, categories, aggregate price, or other bases most advantageous to the City.

Contractors must comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws; maintain insurance with the City named as additional insured; provide non-discrimination and non-retaliation certifications per Austin City Code Chapter 5-4; and certify non-debarment from federal, state, and local government contracting. The City is exempt from federal excise tax and state sales tax, and quoted prices must exclude taxes. Standard payment terms allow payment within thirty days of receipt of properly documented invoices contingent on delivery satisfaction and application of any applicable discounts. Records must be retained for three years following final payment or resolution of audit and litigation matters.
