2. SCOPE OF SERVICES

This specification covers furnishing and delivery of 5 x 9 stone for aggregate ditch lining, 18” Flexible Light Stone Rip Rap and 24” Heavy Stone Rip Rap to be used in the Wichita-Valley Center Flood Control Project and area Creeks and Streams.

A. MATERIAL REQUIREMENTS:

Material is to consist of individual fragments of stone, which are dense, sound, resistant to abrasion and free of cracks, seams or other defects, which would increase their destruction from water and frost actions. Material is to meet the following requirements:

(1) Minimum saturated and surface dry specific gravity of 2.30.

(2) Maximum absorption of 3.5 percent.

(3) Loss not to exceed 18 percent as tested for soundness by the magnesium sulfate method.

(4) Loss not to exceed 40 percent as tested for wear by the Los Angeles Abrasion Test.

(5) Stone for rip-rap shall be free of earth, soapstone, shale and other easily disintegrated material that would decrease the durability of the material after placement.

3. Heavy Stone Rip Rap shall be constructed twenty-four (24”) in thickness and shall meet the same quality requirements specified for heavy stone rip rap and the following size requirements.

Weight of Individual Pieces Minimum Percent Larger Than 1000 lbs. 0% 500 lbs. 50% 250 lbs. 70% 125 lbs. 90%

C. MATERIAL DELIVERY:

Material must be delivered to a location on the Floodway, or other areas in Wichita or Sedgwick County, as designated by the Flood Control Supervisor or designated staff. The intent of this Contract is to have 18” or 24” Rip Rap delivered to a particular location or jobsite as needed. Delivery of the material, 18” or 24” Rip Rap, must begin within five (5) working days after being notified of the location, size, and approximate amount of material to be delivered, and continue until all the material requested for that particular location is delivered. It is expected that all material ordered will be delivered to the designated site(s) within 15 working days from initial delivery, unless the order is of a large size.

Typically, the deliveries will be made at the storage yard on the west side of the levee near MacArthur and Hoover. However, if it is for a large bank stabilization project, the order may be requested to be delivered directly to the worksite. Typically, somewhere along the levee or stream channel – weather dependent.

Large orders (300 ton or more), or orders that will require multiple delivery dates based upon manufacturing at the approved quarries will require a manufacturing and delivery schedule within 5 business days of placement of the order. This schedule will be followed unless the contractor directly communicates in writing the reason for the schedule change and approval of the change by the Flood Control Supervisor. Delivery locations may vary depending on work progress. The contractor should contact the Flood Control Supervisor or the designated staff to coordinate delivery 2 business days prior to each delivery for confirmation. Each manufacturing and delivery date will have the same delivery guidelines as outlined in the previous section unless changes are approved by the Flood Control Supervisor.

Should the Contractor fail to complete the delivery within the allotted time, the Contractor shall become liable to the City of Wichita for a late delivery fee of $50 Dollars per day unless the contractor contacts and coordinates delivery date modifications and extensions in writing to the Flood Control Supervisor, or the designated staff.

By the submission of its bid for this work, the Contractor evidences and warrants to be capable of performing the work within the time specified in the specifications above and shall begin

Our Mission as an exceptionally well-run city, we will: Keep Wichita safe; Grow our economy; build dependable

City of Wichita 5 RFB #260112 work as specified in the contract, and that the Contractor shall be liable for any contact breach created by its failure to timely perform.

Permitting the Contractor to continue and finish the work or any part of it after the time fixed for its completion, or after the date for which the time for completion may have been extended shall in no way operate as a waiver on the part of the City of Wichita of any of its rights under the contract.

Neither by the act of taking over the work nor by the annulment of the contract shall the City of Wichita forfeit the right to recover damages from the Contractor for failure to complete the contract work within the specified time.

In order to be considered valid, a protest must 1) come from an actual bidder or proposer for the contract, 2) who claims to be the rightful award recipient, 3) whose

Our Mission as an exceptionally well-run city, we will: Keep Wichita safe; Grow our economy; build dependable

City of Wichita 9 RFB #260112 economic interest may be affected substantially and directly by the award of a contract or by the failure to award a contract. Suppliers or subcontractors to a bidder or proposer cannot file a valid protest. A valid protest can only be filed by a bidder or proposer which can show that it would be awarded the contract if the protest were successful. Therefore, all conditions numbered 1 through 3 listed above in this paragraph must be met.

The written protest for bids must be filed with the Contract Compliance Officer located on the 12th Floor, Finance Department, City Hall, 455 N Main, Wichita, KS prior to 9:00 a.m. of the Tuesday immediately following the posting of the notice of intent to award on the City’s Purchasing Bid Results site wichita.gov/purchasing. Failure of a protestor to file a written protest related to the award of a contract prior to the 9:00 a.m., Tuesday deadline will invalidate that protest and cause it not to be considered.

The written protest for proposals must be filed with the Contract Compliance Officer located on the 12th Floor, Finance Department, City Hall, 455 N Main, Wichita, KS prior to 5:00 p.m. on the third business day following the day of issuing an email or written notification of award. Failure of a protestor to file a written protest related to the award of a contract prior to 5:00 p.m. on the third business day deadline will invalidate that protest and cause it not to be considered.

The Contract Compliance Officer will acknowledge receipt of the written protest. The written protest is to include the name, address, email address and telephone number of the protestor, identification of the solicitation number or contract number and project title, a detailed statement of the reasons for the protest which justify the relief sought, supporting evidence or documentation to substantiate any arguments, and a concise statement of the form of relief requested (e.g. reconsideration of the offer). All the above required information must be included in the protest at its submission. Untimely protests will be returned unopened. Incomplete protests will be rejected without consideration.

In the event of a valid, timely protest, the City shall not proceed with the execution of the contract until all City administrative remedies have been exhausted or waived, or until a determination is made that a contract award is required to protect the interests of the City.

The decision of the Contract Compliance Officer, based on review of the written protest and information available from City sources, will be rendered within ten (10) business days after receipt of protest, will recite the reasons for the decision, and be provided to the protestor by email or written notification.

The protestor may seek reconsideration of the decision of the Contract Compliance Officer’s decision in writing to the Internal Auditor on the 13th Floor, City Manager Office, City Hall, 455 N Main, Wichita, KS prior to 5:00 p.m. on the third business day following the day of issuing an email or written notification of decision. Failure of a protestor to file a written reconsideration request related to the Contract Compliance decision prior to 5:00 p.m. on the third business day deadline will invalidate that protest and cause it not to be considered. The Internal Auditor decision will be issued by email or written notification, within ten (10) business days after receiving the written reconsideration, unless this time for a response is extended in writing and agreeable by both parties.

The Internal Auditor’s decision will be final, unless the protestor seeks a hearing before the City Council, by written request filed with the City Clerk, located on the 13th Floor, City Hall, 455 N Main, Wichita, KS, prior to 5:00 p.m. on the third business days after issuance of the Internal Auditor written decision.

Our Mission as an exceptionally well-run city, we will: Keep Wichita safe; Grow our economy; build dependable

City of Wichita 10 RFB #260112

If there is a timely written reconsideration request, the protestor may seek reconsideration of the decision of the Internal Auditor by means of a hearing before the City Council. This hearing must be in aid of the City Council’s legislative authority to approve contracts for goods, services, and public improvements on behalf of the City, and does not imply any due process right of the protestor in an unawarded, unexecuted contract. The hearing must be scheduled as soon as practicable according to the City Council’s calendar. The hearing must be granted only upon such facts and issues as are presented in writing to the City Clerk for submission to City Council at or before noon on the Thursday preceding the scheduled hearing. No documents or other evidence must be accepted at the hearing. The protesting party must have available no more than 20 minutes for presentation of argument, followed by no more than 20 minutes of argument presented by City staff. The City Council may deliberate in executive session to seek the assistance of the City Attorney, but must deliver its decision from the bench during the City Council meeting.

If a written protest is made against any proposed award or the award of a contract that relies in part on federal funding, then the Contract Compliance Officer must notify the Granting Authority in writing with all information regarding the protest. A protestor must exhaust all administrative remedies with the City of Wichita before pursuing a protest with the Granting Authority. Protestors are put on notice that according to federal regulations, certain determinations made at the local level are not subject to appeal to the Granting Authority. If a review is granted by the Granting Authority, it will be limited to:

1. the City of Wichita’s failure to have or follow its protest procedures, or its failure to review a complaint or protest; or

2. violations of Federal law or regulations.

The Contract Compliance Officer will provide notice to the Granting Authority Regional Office or Headquarters Office of any request for reconsideration before the City Council, and also provide notice of the decision rendered by the City Council, or any alternative resolution reached.

4. CONTRACT PERIOD AND PAYMENT TERMS

The term of this contract shall be for a one (1) year period with two (2) one (1) year options to renew under the same terms and conditions by mutual agreement of both parties.
