Description
Gwinnett County is seeking a qualified supplier to provide three types of bagged ice‑melt products on an annual, renewable contract. The county will purchase 50‑lb bags of a calcium‑chloride blend, calcium‑magnesium acetate, and sodium chloride (road salt) in quantities that roughly total 4,000 bags each year. The vendor must meet strict labeling, packaging, ASTM testing, and delivery requirements, and be able to ship to multiple county facilities throughout the county on a weekly or emergency (72‑hour) basis. The contract is initially for one year with the possibility of up to four additional one‑year extensions, provided pricing remains firm or a pre‑approved adjustment is documented.

• Provide MSDS, meet ASTM D98‑15 and D632‑12 standards, and label each bag with full product and distributor information.
• Deliver to multiple county sites (police, water resources, parks, etc.) within 1 week of order (72 hours for winter‑weather urgencies); deliveries Monday‑Friday 7 a.m.–3:30 p.m.; late‑delivery penalty of 1 % per day (max 10 days).
• Pricing must be submitted per pound, remain firm for the initial 12‑month term and any renewal periods, and include freight prepaid.
• Award will be based on the lowest responsive and responsible bid; award notification expected the next business day after bid opening.
