BEARINGS, BELTS AND DRIVE PARTS

The Trinity River Authority of Texas is seeking bids for its annual supply of bearings, belts, and drive parts under solicitation number 4450-024-I-27, with bids due on August 12, 2026, at 12:00 PM CST. The procurement is conducted through an online portal, requiring all respondents to register and submit their bids electronically; no physical submissions are accepted. The contract is open to both resident and nonresident vendors, but all bidders must comply with Texas-specific certifications including Resident Bidder Certification, HUB Status Certification, Conflict of Interest Disclosure, Boycott of Israel Compliance, Prohibition on Discrimination Against Firearm Entities, and Sanctions List Compliance under Texas Government Code sections 2252, 2270, 176, 808, 809, and 2274. While no federal FAR clauses apply, the solicitation enforces state-mandated legal obligations that bind offerors upon submission. All individuals seeking access to the secured facility for pre-bid or bid-opening events must register at least 24 hours in advance and present a valid government-issued photo ID; only specific forms of identification are accepted, ranging from Texas driver’s licenses and U.S. passports to military IDs and permanent resident cards. The place of performance is limited to the state of Texas, though no FOB terms, delivery schedule, or packaging specifications are outlined. The contract type, estimated value, pricing details, and evaluation factors are not provided, and no technical specifications for the parts are included beyond the general category of bearings, belts, and drive components. Awards will be determined based on compliance with state certification requirements and procedural adherence, as no formal criteria for price, quality, or technical merit are disclosed. The primary point of contact for inquiries is Joel Perez at pierzj@trinityra.org.
