Sign Blanks

The Calcasieu Parish Police Jury is seeking vendors to supply a broad range of standard sign blanks (pre‑punched metal or plastic signs) that meet Louisiana DOT specifications. Bids are submitted on a per‑unit basis, with all costs—including fabrication and freight—to be included in the unit price. Quantities are not guaranteed; the Parish will order items “as‑needed” over the contract period, and there is no minimum order commitment. The solicitation emphasizes compliance with state‑wide “Louisiana preference” rules, requires a Firearm Non‑Discrimination Certification for larger contractors, and mandates that all prices exclude sales tax. The contract term includes a base six‑month price‑effective period (Oct 1 2026 – Mar 31 2027) with the possibility of extensions up to five years. • Provide pre‑punched sign blanks in 53 standard shapes/sizes (round, triangle, octagon, diamond, square, pentagon, rectangular, flat‑blade, hazard marker, etc.). • Unit prices must be all‑inclusive (fabrication + FOB destination freight) and exclude sales tax. • No minimum order quantities; the Parish will purchase only as needed, with the ability to adjust volumes during the contract. • Mandatory certifications include Louisiana Preference (10 % rule) and Firearm Non‑Discrimination (for contractors ≥ 50 employees).
