About this opportunity
The Township of Lower Merion is seeking a rebid for recycling services focused specifically on the transport, processing, and marketing of commingled materials, identified under contract number 25-21-557. Interested vendors must submit sealed proposals electronically through the PennBid Bonfire Program by 11:00 A.M. on Thursday, September 18, 2025, at which time bids will be publicly opened and read aloud. Bidders are required to provide a bid guaranty as specified in the Instructions to Bidders section and must also submit a Performance Bond and Labor and Materials Bond valued at $50,000.00. Potential vendors can obtain bid specifications electronically at no cost via the PennBid Bonfire website, and are permitted to submit written questions about the project scope through the platform's "Questions" feature until the end of business day on Friday, September 5, 2025. The township emphasizes that all proposals will be evaluated with the potential to reject any or all bids, or to waive any informalities that do not serve the township's best interests.
The procurement opportunity includes specific non-discrimination requirements, mandating that contractors ensure employees and job applicants are not discriminated against based on race, color, religious creed, ancestry, age, sex, national origin, physical or mental disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned, the broad non-discrimination language suggests an inclusive approach to vendor selection. The contract appears to be a standalone recycling services procurement without reference to incumbent vendors or existing technological infrastructure. Although a specific budget range is not provided, the $50,000.00 performance and labor bond suggests a substantial contract value for recycling services. Vendors should be prepared to demonstrate comprehensive capabilities in recycling material transport, processing, and marketing, with a focus on commingled materials handling and environmental compliance.
