Bidders must submit certified analysis documentation and provide a minimum of three project references, with at least two demonstrating chemical supply experience at quantities comparable to or exceeding the total bid quantity. Pricing must be submitted in U.S. dollars per gallon (two decimal places) on an F.O.B. destination prepaid basis.

The initial contract term runs March 21 through June 3, 2023, with three subsequent six-month renewal options available at the County's discretion. Firm pricing is required for the initial term; bidders must indicate any anticipated percentage increase or decrease for renewal periods, with negotiation limited to the County's specified range.

Successful contractors must carry statutory workers' compensation, commercial general liability of $500,000 per occurrence, auto liability of $500,000 per occurrence, and umbrella liability of $1,000,000. All insurance companies must hold an A.M. Best rating of A-5 or higher and be authorized to do business in Georgia. Delivery must occur within 72 hours of order placement or per mutually agreed schedule; contractors are responsible for spill cleanup and verification of truck tank cleanliness.

Addendum 1, issued February 1, 2023, provides pricing history: the previous informal request for quotes (IWQ 1-685139) was awarded to Premier Magnesia at $2.80 per gallon for $72,800 total; the most recent formal solicitation for magnesium chloride (BL097-22) received no bids.
