Barricades

The City of Orange Beach is soliciting bids for the supply and delivery of approximately 300 new and unused barricades designed for crowd control purposes. These barricades must meet detailed technical specifications, including dimensions around 8’7” in length and 43” in height, constructed from 1.5” O.D. steel tubing with 5/8” steel rod grille, featuring interlocking ends, hot-dip galvanized finish conforming to marine standards to ensure durability in harsh environments, and must be marked with the stencil “CITY OF ORANGE BEACH, ALABAMA, [phone hidden]” on the top bar. Delivery is FOB destination to the City of Orange Beach Public Works facility within 60 days after receipt of order, and all units must be free from defects affecting their appearance, serviceability, or safety. The City reserves the right to adjust quantities and requires strict adherence to specifications, with any deviations properly documented for approval. Award of the contract will be based primarily on the lowest responsive bid offering the best value to the City, considering factors such as quality, conformity to specifications, and delivery schedule. The solicitation requires electronic bid submission via the City’s designated eProcurement portal with mandatory handwritten signatures. Bidders must provide a signed Memorandum of Understanding proving enrollment in the federal E-Verify program and submit IRS Form W-9 for tax identification purposes, as non-compliance results in bid rejection. The successful contractor must obtain an Orange Beach business license within 10 days of award unless third-party shipment is used. Contract administration includes standard inspection and acceptance at the delivery site, a minimum 90-day warranty on materials and workmanship, and a prohibition on subcontracting or assignment without City approval. Payment will be processed within 30 days of invoice approval, submitted through an Application for Payment, and pricing must be net of taxes, reflecting the City’s tax-exempt status. The contract, identified by solicitation number 2026-0514, is governed by internal City terms and lacks formal federal FAR clause labeling but emphasizes compliance with all technical and administrative bid requirements.
