MoDOT SE District Polypropylene Culvert Pipe

The Missouri Department of Transportation Southeast District is soliciting competitive bids to establish a price agreement for Polypropylene Culvert Pipe (PP) from qualified vendors on an as-needed/if-needed basis. The procurement is open to multiple vendors and will remain effective from contract award through February 19, 2027, with four additional one-year renewal options available if both parties agree to continue the relationship. Deliverables include corrugated polypropylene culvert pipe available in two specifications: Type S, featuring a corrugated exterior surface with smooth inner liner, and Type SP, a perforated version of Type S pipe. Unless otherwise specified in individual orders, only Type S pipe will be permitted, and orders must clearly identify the diameter, length, quantity, and any special perforations or type specifications required. Material acceptance will be conducted in accordance with MoDOT Specification Section 1047, which contains detailed technical standards and quality acceptance criteria that suppliers must meet. The bid submission deadline is February 19, 2026, with the posted date of February 9, 2026, providing a ten-day response window for qualified bidders to prepare and submit proposals.

The procurement includes mandatory compliance certifications, including a Buy American Form certification and an Anti-Discrimination Against Israel Act Certification as required by Section 34.600, RSMo, with exemptions available for contracts under $100,000 or contractors with fewer than ten employees. Energy Culvert Company has been identified as a prospective vendor with completed certification documentation on file. The deliverables will be distributed across the Southeast District's extensive operational network, which encompasses 36 maintenance buildings located throughout the region in communities including Cape Girardeau, Poplar Bluff, Jackson, and numerous other facilities, as well as specialized operations for fleet mechanics, sign maintenance, signals, and bridge maintenance. The contract documentation does not specify an explicit overall contract value or budget range; however, the establishment of a multi-year price agreement with potential renewals through February 2031 indicates a substantial procurement commitment. Qualified bidders must demonstrate the capacity to supply polypropylene culvert pipe in accordance with MoDOT specifications and maintain compliance with all applicable federal and state contracting requirements throughout the contract term.
