Mini Blinds

The City of Philadelphia is soliciting bids on mini blinds under micro purchase authority, with bids due June 5, 2026. Sellers must quote all line items to be eligible for award; the contract will be awarded as a whole or by line item, whichever serves the City's interests, to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.

Submission occurs through PHLContracts.phila.gov and requires a signed Consent and Authorization Agreement prior to bid closing; failure to submit renders a bid non-responsive and subject to disqualification. A Seller Administrator must be designated for account management throughout the procurement. The City collects LGBTQ Applicant Opportunity Data on a voluntary basis; response does not affect bid evaluation but supports the City's diversity and vendor-database objectives. Submission of an optional LGBTQ Applicant Opportunity Data Form is permitted.

The maximum contract value is $43,000, adjusted annually by the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) from January 1, 2020, to the most recently published figure, rounded to the nearest thousand dollars. The contract term is 365 days from the effective date in PHLContracts, with automatic termination at conclusion. Delivery is FOB Destination Point at quoted prices. All prices must be quoted net and exclusive of taxes; the City is exempt from federal excise, transportation, and Pennsylvania sales and use taxes. Payment is contingent upon delivery, City approval, and invoice submission, processed through electronic deposit.

Sellers must maintain workers' compensation insurance at statutory limits, general liability insurance with a $500,000 per occurrence limit, and automobile liability insurance at $300,000 per occurrence. Sellers must be free of tax indebtedness to the City and must comply with all applicable laws, ethics requirements, and nondiscrimination provisions. Delivery or services must not commence until the department issues notice.
