About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The City of Newark, New Jersey is soliciting electronic bids through its e-Procurement Portal (ProcureNow) for Invitation to Bid #2021-44.2, seeking a hardware vendor to provide tools, equipment, and supplies on an as-needed basis. The procurement is for a two-year contract to establish a price agreement for general hardware items from multiple manufacturers such as Copper Tools, Grainger, Stanley, Proto, Union Tools, and McMaster Carr Tools. Bidders must demonstrate a minimum of two years of experience selling hardware equipment, maintain a substantial inventory, and operate a facility open six days a week for walk-in and emergency orders. The contract requires vendors to submit detailed pricing proposals with discount percentages off manufacturer catalogs for both Year 1 and Year 2, with all discounts being all-inclusive. Electronic bids will be accepted until 10:15 am on November 4, 2021, with the contract to be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Delivery terms specify F.O.B. Destination to approximately 110 City agency locations, with inside delivery required, and all products must be new, of good quality, and include manufacturer warranties.

The solicitation does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The City reserves the right to award contracts to multiple vendors based on line item commodities and will require the selected vendor(s) to provide ten supply catalogs upon contract execution. The procurement allows for potential site inspections by the City to verify stock availability and vendor capabilities. While a specific budget range is not detailed in the documentation, the contract appears designed to establish a flexible purchasing mechanism for hardware and supplies across various City agencies. The comprehensive nature of the bid suggests the potential for significant procurement volume over the two-year contract period, with the City seeking to establish a robust supply chain for its hardware and equipment needs. The solicitation emphasizes vendor reliability, inventory management, and competitive pricing as key evaluation criteria for potential contractors.
