THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
For FY 2026-27 the City authorized purchasing bulk gasoline and diesel through the State MiDEAL contract with Crystal Flash and directly from Autore Oil & Propane, choosing whichever offers the best price for each delivery. The City buys 45,000–50,000 gallons annually, mostly for Kemp Marina, with costs recovered through fuel sales. While primary suppliers are set, fuel management, tank monitoring, billing, and related services around this high‑volume account remain potential opportunities.
City may still purchase from other vendors in emergencies; decision each delivery based on comparative pricing between Crystal Flash and Autore.

Questions about this project
What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
