GAC Changeout

The Town of Southampton, through the Hampton Bays Water District, has issued Solicitation Number BP2026-0039 for a Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) changeout at Plant 1, with a bid opening scheduled for August 12, 2026, at 2:00 PM. The solicitation, available online starting July 23, 2026, requires all bids to be submitted in sealed envelopes marked with the bid number, bidder’s company name, and phone number, using the official mailing label provided. A bid security of 5% of the total bid amount, either as a certified check or a bond payable to the Town of Southampton, is mandatory for submission. All bidders must comply with New York State prevailing wage requirements under PRC 2026017687 and adhere to all applicable federal, state, and local laws. The place of performance is tied to the Hampton Bays Water District in Southampton, NY, with bid submissions directed to the Town Clerk’s Office at 116 Hampton Road, Southampton, NY 11968. No contract value, delivery schedule, or period of performance is specified, and the award methodology—whether based on lowest price or another criteria—is not explicitly stated, though the Town reserves the right to reject any or all bids. Technical specifications, inspection criteria, and detailed performance standards are not included in the public notice and must be obtained from the full solicitation package on the procurement portal. There are no requirements for unique entity IDs, CAGE codes, socioeconomic certifications, or affirmative representations beyond bid security and wage compliance, and no electronic submission or invoicing systems are referenced, with all processes being paper-based. The contract is inferred to be fixed-price due to the sealed bid nature, though formal classification is not stated, and no contract administration contacts, payment details beyond payable-to-the-town instructions, or accounting codes beyond an internal general ledger reference are provided.
