005-RFB-3033-2027 - Addendum 1.pdf

This addendum document, issued by the Iowa Department of Administrative Services on September 21, 2026, modifies the original bidding documents for RFB 005-RFB-3033-2027 concerning concrete services at the Iowa Veterans Home in Marshalltown. The addendum separates pricing lines to distinguish between projects involving less than a truckload (less than 8 cubic yards of concrete) and projects achieving truckload quantities (equal to or greater than 8 cubic yards of concrete), with bidders required to provide separate percentage markup rates for each category. Additionally, a new trip fee line has been added to the pricing structure. The original bid due date remains September 30, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. CDT, with questions due by September 22, 2026. The contract term runs from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027, with the State retaining renewal options for up to five additional annual terms at the same or more favorable terms and conditions.

The modified bidding documents require bidders to submit percentage markups on concrete materials, asphalt materials, specialty or other products, and equipment rentals, along with hourly rates for standard labor, overtime labor, double overtime, and project manager services. Bidders must provide supporting documentation including paid invoices or receipts substantiating actual costs, with the State retaining the right to verify base costs and markups upon request. All required Federal, State, and local licenses and registrations must be obtained prior to bid submission and maintained throughout the contract term. The State allows sixty days for payment under Iowa Code 8A.514, with bidders permitted to offer early payment discounts for payment within thirty days. Exhibit 1 attached to the addendum contains photographs of areas throughout the Iowa Veterans Home requiring repairs.
