RFQ 2023-100 Aggregate Rock

Clackamas County is seeking competitive quotes for various aggregate rock products through Request for Quotes (RFQ) 2023-100, targeting the County Transportation Maintenance Division and potentially other county departments. The procurement seeks multiple types of aggregate rock including 1/4"-0 Crushed Rock, 1"-0 Crushed Rock, 3"-0 Crushed Rock, 4-12" Crushed Drain, Rip Rap, Mason Sand, Fill Sand, Winter Sand, and Top Soil. All aggregate rock must conform to the State of Oregon's Standard Specifications for Highway Construction, 2021 Edition, and will be purchased on an as-needed basis. Quotes are due electronically via Bid Locker by December 12, 2023, at 2:00 PM PST, with the contract term running from December 1, 2023, through December 21, 2026. Contractors can request price changes twice annually, and the county may award multiple contracts, typically selecting the vendor with the best price closest to the project site. The evaluation will focus on the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with prices quoted for loaded materials FOB supplier's site.

The RFQ does not specifically mention set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Contractors will be required to invoice the county monthly for sales, with the county reserving the right to pay by credit card at the time of order. While no incumbent vendors are listed, the procurement appears open to multiple suppliers who can meet the specified rock product requirements and quality standards. The document does not provide a specific budget range or total award value, suggesting that purchases will be made incrementally based on the county's infrastructure and maintenance needs. Successful vendors will need to demonstrate the ability to consistently supply high-quality aggregate rock products, maintain competitive pricing, and fulfill orders efficiently across various county project sites.
