The Town of Wilbraham, Massachusetts has issued an Invitation for Bids (IFB) for the purchase of Wilbraham Highway Materials for 2020. The IFB solicits sealed bids for a variety of highway construction and maintenance materials, including concrete structures, bituminous asphalt products, drainage and sewer castings, and HDPE corrugated pipe. Bids are due by 3:00 pm on July 23, 2020 and will be publicly opened and read aloud. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsible and responsive bidder for each item, with the town reserving the right to award to multiple bidders in case of a tie. The IFB provides detailed specifications and bid forms for each item, and bidders must submit prices on the provided Standard Bid Form along with signed non-collusion and non-discrimination certifications.

Payment terms allow the town 45 days to pay approved invoices, and the town reserves the right to reject any and all bids.

No incumbent vendors or current contractors are listed, and the IFB does not provide any information on existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The IFB does not specify a total award value or budget range for the procurement.
