MoDOT Long Term Safety Awards - Statewide

The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) has issued an Invitation for Bid (IFB) for Long Term Safety Awards, seeking qualified vendors to provide safety recognition items for employees across multiple Missouri jurisdictions including Boone County, Clark County, Marion County, Jefferson City, and Springfield City. The procurement seeks to supply approximately 250-350 employees with one safety award item annually, with options including Tri-Mountain Windproof Jackets, Port Authority Challenger Jackets, and Seiko Watches in various men's and women's sizes ranging from Small to 6XLT. Bids are due February 28, 2020 at 2:00 PM CST, with a contract period from the date of award through December 31, 2020 and two potential one-year renewal options. The award will be made on an "All or Nothing" basis to the lowest responsive bidder, with pricing required for all line items. Delivery of all awarded products must be completed by May 15, 2020, and items must be individually wrapped with MoDOT logo embroidery or imprinting in gray/silver thread.

MoDOT encourages participation from Minority Business Enterprises (MBE) and Women Business Enterprises (WBE), with goals of 10% MBE and 5% WBE participation through subcontractors, suppliers, joint ventures, or other meaningful arrangements. The solicitation also indicates a preference for Service-Disabled Veteran (SDV) businesses. While no incumbent vendor is specified, the bid allows for potential price adjustments during renewal periods, subject to MoDOT's approval. Payment terms are set at Net 30 days, with the option to use a state purchasing card, and FOB Destination shipping terms will apply. Vendors must submit comprehensive pricing that includes all associated costs such as drop shipping, invoicing, insurance, and personnel expenses. Although a specific budget range is not explicitly stated, the estimated annual award volume of 250-350 items suggests a moderate-scale procurement aimed at recognizing long-term employee service.
