Manufactured Sand Supply

The contract pertains to the supply of manufactured sand, also known as crushed rock fines, intended as a sustainable construction material alternative to naturally occurring sand. This subcontract is issued under NAICS code 327320, which classifies the production of crushed and broken stone, and it is managed by the Mississippi Department of Finance and Administration under the agency name MPTAP. The solicitation was posted on July 10, 2026, with a response deadline of July 23, 2026, indicating a relatively short window for prospective suppliers to submit bids. The place of performance and specific location details are not specified, suggesting the project may involve multiple sites across Mississippi or that the exact delivery points will be determined post-award. The contract does not indicate any set-aside provisions for small, minority, or other designated businesses, and no point of contact information is provided, implying inquiries should be directed through the official state portal listed in the UI link. The nature of the material suggests it is critical for infrastructure or construction projects where environmental or logistical constraints limit the use of natural sand.
