Stencil Plastic 144 inches Letters, Numbers 1/10th

The City of Houston is soliciting bids under solicitation number INF-2026-0431 for the procurement of professional-grade plastic stencils for pavement and surface marking. The requirement specifically targets 144-inch letters and numbers with a thickness of 1/10 inch LDPE. These stencils must be durable enough for heavy-duty painting in high-traffic environments such as airports, roads, and industrial floors, while remaining flexible enough to unroll easily, lay flat, and allow dried paint to peel off to maintain sharp edges. The products must be compatible with both asphalt and concrete surfaces. The contract will be awarded to a responsive and responsible bidder based on the overall low net bid meeting specifications, though the City reserves the right to award based on individual items, combinations of items, or the overall best bid. Bidders must submit their proposals by October 14, 2026, and are required to provide an official signature page and a Declaration of Hire Houston First Designation form if seeking local preference. Payment terms are set at thirty days following invoice approval or acceptance of goods. Vendors must certify compliance with various Texas Government Code mandates, including anti-boycott provisions regarding Israel, energy companies, and firearm entities, as well as certifications regarding equal opportunity and non-collusion.
