About this opportunity
Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LACMTA) is soliciting quotes for two-ply toilet paper (Scott/Kimberly #790, METRO P/N 146551N) with quotes due July 22, 2026, under a set-aside restricted to METRO-approved small business enterprises (SBEs) only.
The solicitation permits only two approved manufacturers: Kimberly-Clark Corporation (MFG# 4460) and SCA Americas (MFG# TM1616S). No substitutes are allowed. All quotes must include price, lead time, and part number at the header level of the solicitation; failure to provide all three elements renders the quote non-responsive.
LACMTA will award based on best value considering price, lead time, and past performance. Delivery must include the purchase order number and part number on all packing slips. When deliveries comprise multiple pallets, each pallet requires its own individual packing slip. Palletized deliveries to the Consolidated Material Facility (CMF) must conform to 46×46×42 pallet dimensions or will be rejected. Questions or requests for approved equals must be submitted at least 3 business days prior to close. Quote validity is 60 days.
