22-072 Addendum 1

This is Addendum No. 1 to Invitation to Bid 22-072 issued by the City of Albany, Georgia, for directional boring and conduit installation services. The project encompasses an estimated 5,100 linear feet of directional boring for HDPE conduit installation in the Byron Ridge Subdivision. The contract is structured as a one-year firm price agreement with two optional one-year renewal terms in accordance with Georgia Law 36-60-13. The bid opening was scheduled for June 15, 2022, at 2:30 p.m. Bidders were required to acknowledge receipt of the addendum with their submittal.

The addendum clarifies critical specifications for the project through a questions and answers section. The HDPE pipe will be either 2 inches or 1 inch in diameter, dependent upon material availability, with bidders permitted to submit pricing for 2-inch pipe subject to price adjustment after installation. Hand holes will average 17 inches by 30 inches, while junction boxes will average 10 inches by 12 inches. The addendum explicitly states that no materials will be installed within concrete, eliminating any requirement for removal and repair pricing by the contractor, as the City of Albany will handle such work if necessary. All other terms and conditions of the original bid documents remain unchanged. Inquiries regarding the bid were directed to Joshua Williams, Interim Procurement Manager, at (229) 431-3211.
