25% Sodium Hydroxide (Caustic Soda)

The City of Salem, Oregon is seeking bids for 25% Sodium Hydroxide (Caustic Soda) under solicitation number 6151, with proposals due by June 17, 2026. The procurement is administered through an electronic bidding system and requires vendors to register with both the Cuyahoga County Inspector General’s Office—completing ethics training, passing a quiz, and paying a $100 fee valid through December 31, 2029—and the Lawson Electronic Purchasing System. Bidders must submit pricing for all items on the Bid Pricing Sheet as the order cannot be split, and all quotes must include shipping and handling charges. While the contract title references sodium hydroxide, the supporting documentation primarily describes unrelated items such as Airband Mobile 200 Channel devices and brass cable, suggesting a possible mismatch or contamination in document linkage. The place of performance is listed as Oregon, and the point of contact for contracting inquiries is [email hidden]. No formal FAR clauses, packaging or labeling standards, inspection criteria, or technical specifications are included in the solicitation. Award will be made on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable basis, with selection based solely on total combined cost and compliance with registration requirements. No contract value, payment details, invoicing methods, contracting officer information, or accounting codes are provided, and there is no mention of socioeconomic set-asides, UEI or CAGE codes, or compliance with military or industry performance standards.
