The City of Philadelphia is seeking bids for a broad assortment of dental supplies for use across City agencies and departments. - Government buyer: City of Philadelphia, Procurement Department; citywide use by various agencies and departments. - Scope: Dental supplies including protective apparel, masks and eye protection, lead aprons, patient towels and drapes, polishing stones, and dental burs. The bid schedule contains hundreds of items; the available text identifies only the line items listed below. - OEMs and named brands: Valueflex, Valumax, Henry Schein, 3M/ESPE, OP D-OP, RINN, Soothe-Guard, Buffalo Dental Manufacturing Co., SHOFU, and NeoBurr. OP D-OP is specified as brand-only for its visor system, and SHOFU is specified as brand-only for the listed dental stones. - Named suppliers/reference sources: Patterson and Henry Schein catalog numbers are cited as references for some items; the solicitation indicates these are reference numbers rather than a general requirement to purchase from those suppliers. - Notable product requirements: Items include latex-free apparel and masks, anti-fog splash-visor masks, side-shield safety glasses, lead-free aprons, and packaged dental stones. Quantity, package details, and available part numbers are captured in the line-item list. - Bidder requirements: Bidders must provide unit pricing and identify the offered brand and product number for each listed item. The solicitation indicates no SBE or LBE participation ranges, while requiring documented good-faith efforts to include eligible small and local businesses. - Term: The supply contract term is not stated in the available text. A separate FY2027 bid-security attachment describes its own annual coverage, but does not establish the supply contract period.
