Description:
The Iowa DOT is seeking firm, statewide pricing for two types of winter‑patching asphalt materials—UPM Cold Mix and standard Cold Mix—plus a per‑mile delivery charge. Vendors must provide price per ton, indicate all pickup locations where the material will be stocked, and supply a per‑mile delivery rate. The pricing must be valid for any pickup or delivery occurring from the time of award through March 31, 2027. This is a price‑information solicitation; no contract is awarded through this RFQ, but the DOT will use the responses to guide field‑staff purchases during the upcoming winter season. • Provide unit price (USD/ton) for UPM Cold Mix and Cold Mix, with “no substitutions” for UPM. • List all statewide pickup locations for each material in the additional item fields. • Submit a per‑mile delivery charge (USD/mile) for optional delivery service. • Prices must be firm, tax‑exclusive, and valid through 31 Mar 2027; tax‑exemption certificates will be provided. • All materials are subject to testing per Materials IM 438.

Budget Estimate (AI):

$200,000 – $500,000

Based on typical cold‑mix asphalt prices (≈ $200‑$300 per ton) and an estimated statewide demand that could range from 500 to 1,500 tons over the 12‑month period, total material spend might fall between $100 k and $450 k. Adding a per‑mile delivery charge (≈ $2‑$5 per mile) for multiple delivery routes could increase the overall spend, pushing the potential revenue for a vendor into roughly $200 k‑$500 k. This estimate assumes the vendor supplies both material types and handles delivery for a significant portion of the state’s maintenance districts.
