About this opportunity
Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LACMTA) is requesting quotes for jumbo toilet tissue (9-inch, 8 rolls per case) under a small-business enterprise set-aside, with quotes due August 17, 2026. This solicitation is restricted to LACMTA-approved SBEs only.
The scope specifies two approved manufacturers and part numbers: Georgia-Pacific Consumer Products (GP13728) and SCA Americas (TJ0922A). No substitutions are permitted. Quotes must include price, lead time, and part number; failure to provide all three elements renders the quote non-responsive.
LACMTA will award based on best value considering price, lead time, and past performance. Delivery to the Central Maintenance Facility must be palletized to 46 inches by 46 inches by 42 inches; non-conforming shipments will be rejected. Packing slips must list the purchase order number, part number, and quantity; if delivery spans multiple pallets, each pallet requires its own packing slip with the PO number.
Questions or requests for approved-equal manufacturers must be submitted at least three business days before solicitation close (by August 14, 2026). Quotes must remain valid for 60 days from submission.
