Fittings (Annual) – February 11, 2026

This bid evaluation concerns Central Alabama Water’s annual procurement of non‑AIS and AIS pipe fittings, including domestic and imported bolt packs, to support the utility’s ongoing water‑distribution operations. Five vendors submitted bids; the lowest responsive bid (Consolidated Pipe & Supply) was later rescinded due to errors, leaving four viable offers with total costs ranging from roughly $892 k to $1.18 M and lead‑times from 5 days to several weeks. The agency has not yet selected a winning vendor, and a note indicates that lead‑time verification is still required before award. • Scope: supply of assorted pipe fittings and bolt packs for a municipal water system. • Vendors: Ferguson Water Works, Central Pipe & Supply, Empire Pipe & Supply, Core & Main LP (all with valid bids). • Financial range: $892,885 – $1,181,830 (total price per vendor). • Status: evaluation completed February 11 2026; award pending due to rescinded lowest bid and lead‑time review.
