Quote Request 26-7013-ELD - Small Breakaway Base

Lubbock Power & Light, a municipal electric utility in Texas, is requesting quotes for twelve aluminum frangible bases conforming to Texas Highway Department specification #621010033, with quotes due September 18, 2026 at 1:00 p.m. through the Bonfire Portal and no extensions granted for late submissions.

The bases are permanent mold castings manufactured from ASTM B-26 or B-108 alloy SG 70A-T6 aluminum with specified dimensional tolerances, side-wall thickness of at least 1/4 inch, bolt-flange thickness of at least 3/4 inch, overall height not exceeding 20 inches, and unit weight of approximately 31 lbs. These are highway safety applications.

Delivery time is a critical evaluation factor; factory stock items may be deemed non-responsive, signaling LP&L's preference for prompt or made-to-order fulfillment. Quote prices must remain firm for a minimum of ten days. Pricing must be quoted as Free on Board Destination with freight prepaid and allowed. Bidders must certify that quoted prices do not exceed the lowest prices charged to other customers for like quality and quantity. Payment terms are Net 30 days unless a prompt-payment discount is offered; LP&L reserves the right to remit using the City's MasterCard Purchasing Card without additional surcharges.

Bidders must acknowledge agreement to LP&L's terms and conditions, including product-conformity and safety-standards warranties, indemnification, title and risk-of-loss provisions, and compliance with Texas Government Code requirements on foreign ownership, firearm entity non-discrimination, and energy company boycott prohibitions. Material Safety Data Sheets are required for all hazardous chemicals. All correspondence must occur exclusively through designated email (mmoniz@mylubbock.us); direct contact with LP&L board members or staff during the proposal period results in disqualification.
