Purchase of Supplies - Engineering

The Jefferson Parish Government is soliciting bids for the purchase of supplies for the Department of Public Works - Engineering under solicitation number 381. The solicitation was posted on November 9, 2026, with a response deadline of November 13, 2026. Stacey Champagne serves as the primary point of contact for this procurement. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. A critical component of responsiveness is strict adherence to insurance requirements. The apparent low bidder must provide final insurance certificates that fully comply with the standards set forth in Jefferson Parish Resolution No. 136353 or No. 141125 within ten calendar days of the bid opening. Failure to provide these certificates or the required worker's compensation insurance declaration affidavit within this timeframe will result in the bid being rejected as non-responsive. Contractors are prohibited from commencing work until all insurance and evidentiary requirements are met. All required coverages must be maintained throughout the term of the contract, as failure to maintain such insurance is grounds for contract suspension, discontinuation, or termination. Any requests for deviations from these insurance standards must be submitted in writing with compelling substantiation to the Purchasing Department before the bid due date. While scanned copies of signed paperwork may be submitted initially, the successful bidder must eventually provide original affidavits in their original format.
