This is a First-Tier Subcontractors List form required by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources for Project Number 2027-119, the Checkerboard Road Upgrade REBID. The project involves supplying and spreading approximately 1,210 cubic yards of state-approved pit run gravel suitable for non-frozen ground access into state land and installing two contractor-supplied 24-inch diameter by 20-foot long steel culverts near Hoyt Lakes in St. Louis County, Minnesota. All work includes necessary labor, equipment, materials, tools, transportation, and incidentals. Contractors must submit responses electronically through the Swift Portal, with all questions directed to the designated buyer. A site visit may be arranged by contacting Project Supervisor Andy Carlson at 218-274-7043. The state reserves the right to award items separately, by grouping, or by total as deemed most advantageous and will make the award to the lowest responsible vendor meeting specifications and all terms and conditions.

The First-Tier Subcontractors List form must be completed prior to contract execution and requires prime contractors to identify all first-tier subcontractors by legal company name, home office city location, percentage of contract value, and certified status as Targeted Group Business, Economically Disadvantaged Business, or Veteran-Owned Business entities. Prime contractors must certify under oath that all listed first-tier subcontractors have verified through signed statements that they meet minimum criteria for responsible contractors as defined in Minnesota Statute 16C.285. Unit pricing must include all costs such as labor, materials, tools, transportation, equipment, and applicable taxes. Direct Pay Permit 1114 does not apply to this project. Contractors must ensure compliance with all solicitation requirements and attachments, as failure to respond to the latest event version may result in bid rejection.
