Flotec Parts

The City of Houston has issued an informal solicitation, reference number 10357399, for the procurement of Flotec brand parts. The contract requires the furnishing and delivery of these specific parts on an FOB destination basis as specified in individual purchase orders. While the City generally requires the exact brand specified, bidders may propose an approved equal provided they submit descriptive literature including the manufacturer's name, product name, and product number. The City may also request samples without charge for evaluation purposes. The award will be based on the overall low net bid that meets all specifications, though the City reserves the right to award based on individual items, combinations of items, or the overall best bid. To be eligible, bidders must be determined responsive and responsible, with the City reviewing references to verify financial and technical capacity. Bidders must provide a specific delivery timeline in calendar days, as vague terms like stock or immediately may lead to rejection. Payment is due thirty days after the City approves the invoice or accepts the goods, whichever occurs later. Compliance requirements include certifications of equal opportunity employment, non-collusion, and adherence to Texas Government Code regarding boycotts of Israel, energy companies, and firearm entities, as well as restrictions on providing supplies to foreign terrorist organizations. Bidders must use the official signature page and are prohibited from submitting company quotation forms with alternative terms. All submissions are subject to the Texas Public Information Act.
