Six (6) Month Contract for Road Materials - Asphaltic Concrete

The City of Beaumont is seeking bids for a six-month contract to supply asphaltic concrete for use by the City's Department of Public Works. The contract requires the vendor to provide approximately 750 tons of hot-mix asphaltic concrete, with the City ordering the material 48 hours before scheduled delivery. The vendor must deliver the material to the City's work sites within Beaumont, with the City having the option to pick up material from the vendor's plant if it is located within the Golden Triangle of Southeast Texas. The contract will be awarded to the responsible bidder who provides the best value to the City, with the City reserving the right to reject any or all bids. Key considerations for the contract include the price per ton of asphaltic concrete, the location of the vendor's plant, and the vendor's ability to provide uninterrupted delivery of the material. • The contract term is six months, with the option for the City to renew the contract for two additional six-month terms at the same price. • The vendor must provide a certificate of insurance and comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including Texas Ethics Commission requirements. • The City reserves the right to terminate the contract if the vendor fails to perform or breaches the agreement. • The vendor must comply with the City's insurance requirements, including providing workers' compensation and liability insurance. • The vendor must provide a bid bond or payment bond to guarantee performance under the contract.
