IFB 25-020/SC Term Contract for Heavy Materials

Jefferson County Drainage District No. 6 has issued Invitation for Bid (IFB 25-020/SC) for a Term Contract for Heavy Materials, targeting procurement of various construction materials including embankment, flexible base, limestone rock, cement treatment, cement-stabilized sand, rip-rap stone, and concrete classes. The solicitation seeks bids for a one-year contract with potential for four additional one-year renewals, covering material types specified according to TxDOT standards. Pricing will be evaluated for both pick-up and delivered rates across different distance ranges from plant site to job site, with specific unit pricing required for 5-10 miles, 10-15 miles, 15-25 miles, and 25+ miles. The bid is scheduled to be due on August 21, 2025, at 2:00 PM CT, with evaluation criteria focusing on bidder responsibility, responsiveness, and ability to meet district needs. Vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) with an active status and complete all required documentation.

Bidders are required to submit several mandatory forms, including a HUB (Historically Underutilized Business) Subcontracting Participation Declaration, House Bill 89 Verification, and Senate Bill 252 Certification. The District maintains flexibility in award strategy, reserving the right to award the contract to multiple vendors based on comprehensive assessment. Price redetermination may be considered at each twelve-month contract anniversary, with vendors required to provide justification for any proposed price changes. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly detailed, the comprehensive nature of the materials procurement suggests a potentially significant contract value. The solicitation appears to encourage participation from diverse vendors, with particular emphasis on historically underutilized businesses through the HUB subcontracting declaration requirements.
