Ready Mix Concrete

The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) Central District is seeking to establish a price agreement with multiple vendors for the supply and delivery of Ready Mix Concrete throughout calendar year 2019. This Invitation for Bid (IFB605CD19001263) covers 18 counties in the Central District, including Boone County, and will operate on an as-needed, if-needed basis. The concrete specifications require 5-bag through 8.5-bag air entrained mix options using Type 1 Portland Cement Concrete with a 3.5" slump from calibrated and MoDOT-approved plants. Vendors must provide pricing per cubic yard, which will remain firm for the entire calendar year, with no environmental fees or fuel surcharges accepted. When materials are needed, MoDOT will select vendors based on cost analysis, availability, and proximity to the project location. The bid solicitation was posted on December 11, 2018, with responses due by January 3, 2019 at 1:00 PM CST. Vendors must be registered on the MissouriBUYS e-procurement system to participate and must provide pricing for all line items within each county they choose to bid.

The solicitation encourages Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) and Women Business Enterprise (WBE) participation, with a goal of 10% MBE and 5% WBE involvement. Vendors can bid on one or multiple county groups but must provide comprehensive pricing for all line items within each county bid. Additional charges may be considered for specific requirements such as calcium chloride additives (1% or 2%), fiber reinforcement, hot water, and short loads (defined as 4 yards or less). The contract includes cooperative purchasing provisions, allowing Missouri counties, cities, and other political entities to purchase under the same terms. Payment terms are net 30 days, with payment made in full after delivery completion and receipt of correct invoice. While no specific contract value is explicitly stated, the multiple-award approach suggests MoDOT anticipates significant concrete procurement needs across the Central District throughout 2019. The procurement is structured to provide flexibility in vendor selection and ensure competitive pricing for ready mix concrete delivery.
