UDOT Liquid Asphalt Oil Region 1

The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) Procurement Services Division is conducting an Invitation for Bid (IFB) under Solicitation #UDOT260201CN to procure liquid asphalt oil for Region 1 delivery locations. This is a one-year contract procurement structured to award the contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder meeting all technical and delivery specifications in accordance with the State of Utah Procurement Code and Utah Administrative Code. The goods being procured consist of liquid asphalt to be supplied and delivered to specified locations within UDOT Region 1, with all product deliveries required to be completed by May 21, 2026. Bidders must submit comprehensive documentation and information demonstrating compliance with stated specifications and requirements, including completion of the required Vendor/Customer Creation and Modification Form (FI170) for vendor registration in the state's accounting system. The evaluation will be based on bid responsiveness and the responsibility of the bidder, with contract award going to the lowest qualifying bidder. The bid submission deadline is March 31, 2026, with the solicitation having been posted on March 23, 2026.

The procurement documents do not specify set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or restrictions on organizational types eligible to respond, indicating that the solicitation is open to all qualified vendors meeting the specified requirements. No incumbent vendor or current contractor information is detailed in the provided solicitation materials. Successful bidders must meet standard State of Utah contractor requirements, including maintaining proof of insurance coverage (workers' compensation, commercial general liability of minimum $1,000,000 per occurrence/$3,000,000 aggregate, and commercial automobile liability of $1,000,000 combined single limit), registering with the E-Verify employment status verification system, and certifying non-debarment status. The solicitation materials do not specify a published budget range or award value; however, as a competitive IFB for liquid asphalt supply to a state transportation department, the contract value is anticipated to be substantial given the scope of regional coverage and one-year term.
