The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) Southeast District is seeking sealed bids for a bulk oil products contract through Invitation for Bid (IFB) number IFB605SE25000150. The procurement specifically targets virgin oil products, including Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF), 15W-40 lubricating oil, 80W-90 lubricating oil, MP lithium grease, and universal hydraulic/transmission oil in various container sizes ranging from pints to bulk delivery. Bids will be accepted electronically through the MissouriBUYS Statewide eProcurement System from July 25, 2024, to August 8, 2024, at 2:00 PM CDT. The contract period will run from the date of award until August 15, 2024, with up to three potential one-year renewal options. Delivery requirements mandate a minimum of 500 tons per day, with two business days advance notice, and deliveries restricted to normal business hours. The evaluation criteria include responsiveness, responsibility, and pricing, with the contract to be awarded on an "All or Nothing" basis to the lowest qualifying vendor. Bidders must provide detailed product information, including brand names, manufacturer details, and may be required to submit product samples for testing.

The solicitation encourages participation from Minority Business Enterprises (MBE) and Women Business Enterprises (WBE), with specific goals of 10% MBE and 5% WBE participation through subcontractors, suppliers, or joint ventures. Service-disabled veteran-owned businesses are also welcome to participate. For purchases over $25,000, a 10% price preference will be applied to products manufactured in the United States under the Buy American Act. Vendors must comply with the Domestic Products Procurement Act and provide information about any foreign-manufactured products. While a specific contract value is not explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the procurement suggests a significant ongoing supply contract for the Southeast District's oil and lubricant needs. Price escalation is permitted after the initial three months of the contract period, subject to written justification and MoDOT approval. Successful bidders will be responsible for providing pump meter certifications, Material Safety Data Sheets, and managing any necessary cleanup or drum collection associated with the product delivery.
