Supply and Refill Oxygen and Gas Cylinders

Forsyth County, Georgia, is seeking competitive quotes for a comprehensive gas cylinder rental, supply, and refill services contract covering calendar years 2026-2028. The Invitation to Quote (ITQ No. 26-24-2410) specifically solicits services for approximately 150 size D aluminum oxygen cylinders with main valve toggle, 5 M6 cylinders, 10 large acetylene cylinders, 6 large argon UN1006 cylinders, and 6 large oxygen cylinders. Delivery locations include the Forsyth County Fire Department and Fleet Maintenance Department in Cumming, GA. The selected vendor will be responsible for monthly cylinder rentals, maintaining an adequate inventory of full cylinders, emergency reserve stock, and conducting regular inspections and refills in compliance with FDA and DOT medical-grade gas standards. Quotes are due by October 16th, 2025, at 2:00 pm EST, with a question and answer deadline of October 9th at 2:00 pm EST. All questions must be submitted through the EUNA procurement platform, and vendors must have appropriate business licenses and comply with E-Verify requirements.

The procurement appears to be open to all qualified vendors without specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises. The contract structure includes monthly invoicing with detailed documentation requirements and mandates extensive insurance coverage, including Statutory Workers' Compensation, Comprehensive General Liability, Comprehensive Automobile Liability, Excess Umbrella Liability, Professional Liability, and Cyber Liability insurance. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the three-year contract duration suggests a potentially significant financial opportunity for the selected vendor. The agreement allows for annual renewal and provides the County with the flexibility to terminate the contract at the end of each calendar year if funds are not appropriated. Vendors will be expected to provide comprehensive pricing for rental and refill services, with the ability to include supplemental costs such as site visits, but with no additional charges for minimum quantities, fuel surcharges, or travel expenses. The County is tax-exempt, and the contract emphasizes strict compliance with local, state, and federal regulations.
