About this opportunity

West Goshen Township in Chester County, Pennsylvania, is seeking bids for Contract No. 2026-3, a procurement opportunity for the supply and delivery of magnetite to their Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP). The contract will cover a one-year or three-year period, with an estimated annual requirement of 40,000 pounds and a total three-year requirement of 120,000 pounds. Vendors must provide 1-ton super sacks of magnetite with specific chemical composition requirements, including Fe3O4 with over 68% total iron, specific gravity greater than 4.8, and moisture content less than 2%. Deliveries must be made within twenty-one calendar days of ordering, restricted to between 7:00 AM and 3:00 PM. The bid will be received via the PennBID online platform, with the bid opening scheduled for November 21, 2025, at 10:00 AM. Evaluation criteria will focus on safety performance, pricing, and proposal completeness, with the contract awarded to the most responsible bidder.

The procurement does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Bidders must submit comprehensive documentation, including a 10% bid security, non-collusion affidavit, Equal Employment Opportunity certification, and technical data sheets. Insurance requirements are substantial, mandating commercial general liability, automobile liability, and professional liability with minimum aggregate limits of $1,000,000. Payment terms include remittance within 30 days of invoice submission, with invoicing limited to once per month. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the three-year contract potential and annual requirement of 40,000 pounds suggest a significant procurement value. Vendors will be required to provide unit pricing for both one-year and three-year contract options, allowing flexibility in contract duration and potential financial commitment.
