Steel Strap and Angle, 0970

The West Virginia Department of Transportation, Division of Highways for District Nine is conducting a one-time procurement solicitation (ARFQ 0803 DOT2500000061) for structural steel materials. The specific procurement includes four line items: 51 pounds of 1/2"x1 1/2"x20' flat steel, 170 pounds of 1/2"x2 1/2"x20' flat steel, 67 pounds of 3/8"x1 1/2"x1 1/2"x20' angle steel, and 4 pieces of #9 expanded metal measuring 4'x8'. The steel products must meet specific material standards, including AASHTO M270 Grade 50 (ASTM A709 Grade 50) for flat and angle steel, and ASTM F1267-91, type 1 for expanded metal. Technical questions were required to be submitted by May 16, 2025, at 10 AM EST, with final bids due by May 20, 2025, at 10:30 AM. Delivery is required within 15 working days after receiving a purchase order, with items to be delivered to 331 Brush Rd, Lewisburg, WV 24901. The contract will be awarded to the vendor providing the lowest overall total cost, with the contract running from the issuance of the Award Document until all goods are delivered, not to exceed one fiscal year.

To be eligible for award, vendors must be registered with the West Virginia State Purchasing Division and demonstrate compliance with several state agencies, including the Secretary of State's office, Tax Department, Worker's Compensation, and Unemployment Insurance. The solicitation does not specify any specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Bids can be submitted via OASIS upload, hand delivery, mail, or fax, but email submissions are not accepted. Vendors must complete the pricing page in full and carefully review all documentation, signing required pages to ensure complete compliance with state procurement regulations. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the procurement appears to be a targeted, one-time purchase for specific steel materials needed by the District Nine Highways Division. The total procurement seems to be relatively small in scale, focusing on precise material specifications for infrastructure or maintenance purposes.
