Monocalcium phosphate

The Texas Department of Criminal Justice is requesting bids to establish a purchase order for monocalcium phosphate, with responses due August 11, 2026.

The commodity is food-grade monocalcium phosphate for institutional food preparation and nutrition supplementation across TDCJ's correctional facilities. Respondents must submit unit pricing on the designated TDCJ form with prices firm for thirty days from the response due date. Responses must be time-stamped at the designated office on or before the specified time and date; late or unsigned responses will not be considered.

Delivery shall be F.O.B. destination with freight prepaid unless otherwise specified. If the respondent does not state a delivery time, delivery is obligated within fourteen calendar days. All goods are subject to inspection and testing by authorized TDCJ personnel, with all testing costs borne by the vendor if products fail to meet specifications.

The TDCJ reserves the right to award on the basis of low line-item response, low total of line-items, or any combination serving the best interest of the State. The contract may be extended up to three months at the TDCJ's sole discretion. The TDCJ will not be bound by oral statements contrary to written specifications.
