Bid 18-34 Bulk Oils and Lubricants

The City of Rochester, NH issued a municipal procurement to acquire a broad range of bulk oils, lubricants, greases, hydraulic fluids, fuel additives, and cleaning agents for its fleet and facilities. The bid opened on May 17, 2018, and the results PDF lists unit prices for each product line, showing which vendors responded and indicating “No Bid” for items without offers. This solicitation is essentially a price‑list competition for consumable fluid products, with multiple well‑known brands represented (Shell, Mobil, Chevron, Kendall, Texaco, Castrol, etc.). The city seeks competitive pricing rather than a long‑term service contract, and the purchase is expected to be a one‑time bulk acquisition. • Scope: Purchase of dozens of oil and lubricant products for municipal use (vehicles, equipment, HVAC, etc.). • Pricing: Unit prices provided for each item; no total contract value disclosed, but line‑item costs range from a few dollars to several hundred dollars. • Vendor participation: Multiple manufacturers/brands listed; some items received no bids, indicating potential gaps in supplier coverage.
