Description:

This Invitation for Bid (IFB) 6100053321 (identified here and in the other documents as the “Contract”) is being issued by the Pennsylvania Department of General Services (DGS) and will cover the requirements of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (Commonwealth) Agencies for Sodium Chloride (Bulk Road Salt), with the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) being the main user of the contract. In addition, Local Public Procurement Units (COSTARS), as defined by the Commonwealth Procurement Code, may use this contract in accordance with the COSTARS Provision contained within the contract terms and conditions.
On March 19, 2020, the Governor’s Office issued a General Purchasing Ban to limit spending of goods or services that are not critical to operations. The Contract for Sodium Chloride (Bulk Road Salt) is expiring on 7/31/2021 and the issuing agency has determined through its internal process that this solicitation is absolutely critical to continue agency operations and the purchase does not violate the Governor’s General Purchasing Ban. Additionally, the issuing agency conducted due diligence via positive vendor affirmation that there is sufficient competition due to the prevalence of telework allowing a preponderance of suppliers to have access to respond to the solicitation. The Commonwealth’s electronic bidding systems can be accessed via teleworking by the Commonwealth and suppliers due to the phased reopening of counties across the Commonwealth.
