Industrial Wastewater Fiberglass Reinforced Pipe

Riverbend Water Resources District is requesting sealed bids for the supply and delivery of fiberglass reinforced pipe to convey industrial wastewater to a proposed treatment plant, with bids due September 17, 2026 at 3:00 p.m. and questions due September 10, 2026.

The scope comprises 19,520 linear feet of 10-inch PN150 SN46 FRP for force mains and 12,200 linear feet of 18-inch PN50 SN46 FRP for gravity sewers. All specifications are minimums; suppliers may propose pipe exceeding stated standards. Bidders must propose a specific delivery duration in calendar days from purchase order issuance to complete delivery; bids omitting delivery duration will be evaluated using the longest duration received by any responsive bidder. All pipe and materials must be delivered to the project site prior to March 1, 2027. The selected supplier coordinates with a general contractor (to be procured separately) for installation and warranty.

The District awards on best value basis: price weighted 75 percent, delivery duration weighted 25 percent. Price score is calculated by dividing the lowest total bid price by the bid under evaluation and multiplying by 75. Delivery score divides the shortest delivery duration offered by any responsive bidder by the duration under evaluation and multiplies by 25. The two scores are summed; the highest total score receives award. Bidders must note any exceptions to specifications; failure to check the acceptance or exception box represents acceptance of all procurement specifications without exception.

Sealed bids are due at the Riverbend Office, 228 Texas Avenue, New Boston, Texas 75570. Bids will be opened and read aloud at that location. The District anticipates issuing notice of award on September 23, 2026, and issuing the purchase order agreement on October 28, 2026. The District reserves the right to reject any and all proposals.
