Traffic Barricades, Warning Lights, Signs and Hardware

The City of Dallas Office of Procurement Services is soliciting bids to establish a thirty-six (36) month Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) master agreement for Traffic Barricades, Warning Lights, Signs and Hardware. This procurement covers various traffic control products to be ordered on an as-needed basis throughout the contract period, with quantities and delivery schedules determined by actual City requirements rather than predetermined amounts. Deliverables include traffic barricades with specific hardware configurations, flashing LED warning lights compatible with approved holder and plate assemblies (including Flex-O-Lite #6VFL, Dyna Engineering LTD DL-3, Cortina Lite, and Sundowner Lite models), traffic cones, warning flags, tape, and related hardware meeting applicable federal and state safety standards. The award will be made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with the City Council retaining discretion to reject any or all bids, waive minor irregularities, award by line or group, and select among responsive bidders based on evaluation criteria specified in the solicitation. Suppliers must comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, including living wage requirements for contracts valued over $50,000 and equal employment opportunity provisions for contracts exceeding $50,000. All deliveries must be FOB Dallas delivery site with no shipping charges billable to the City, and the supplier bears responsibility for loss during shipment. The bid due date is March 6, 2026, with pricing to be considered firm for acceptance within one hundred eighty (180) days after bid opening.

The procurement documents require bidders to complete the Team Make-Up and Local Workforce Form (OPS-FRM-640) detailing all team members, subcontractors, scope of work, contract values, and participation percentages, with Section III regarding local workforce employment data being voluntary unless the project qualifies as a federal DBE or state HUB required contract. The City is exempt from all federal excise taxes and state and local sales and use taxes, which should not be included in bid responses. Bidders must comply with debarment and suspension requirements and provide invoices that include the written delivery order number and detailed service descriptions submitted to the appropriate City billing address, with payment made through Electronic Funds Transfer. The solicitation documents do not identify any incumbent vendors, current contractors, or existing infrastructure requiring integration, nor do they specify award values or budget ranges for this master agreement. Bidders are evaluated based on criteria outlined in the solicitation, with final selection discretion retained by the City Council among responsive and responsible bidders.
