About this file

This is an Addendum 2 issued by the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) Bureau of Construction and Materials Estimating Section for a grading, bridge, and surfacing project in Cowley County. The project, identified as U077-018 KA 4137-01, involves work on US-77 from 1.86 miles north of the US-77/US-166 junction past the South Winfield city limit to the south edge of the wearing surface of Walnut River Bridges #009 and #074, spanning 8.805 miles. The addendum revises four required special provisions related to unit costs for sanitary sewer system, furnishing and planting plant materials, water system, and electric lighting system components. The letting date is scheduled for June 17, 2026. Prime contractor bid holders must acknowledge receipt of this addendum by signing and dating the document and returning it to Joshua Matyi at Joshua.Matyi@ks.gov, even if not bidding. Any instructions not followed will result in bids being declared irregular, and contractors are responsible for informing all subcontractors and suppliers of these changes.

Contractors must submit completed spreadsheets for unit costs on each of the four systems using KDOT-provided templates no later than noon on the Friday after the letting day. The unit costs must be calculated so that the sum of unit costs multiplied by the Summary of Quantities shown in the plans equals the respective lump sum price bid for each system, or the submission will be rejected and require resubmittal. Once approved, these spreadsheets will be incorporated into the contract by reference and placed on KDOT's Exploratory Site. For sanitary sewer and water systems, all work must comply with the local entity's specifications except where superseded by the respective standard sections or plan details, and standard fittings are considered subsidiary items not quantified separately. The Secretary may reject proposals if contractors fail to complete these required provisions by the specified deadline. Contractors must access the updated EBS file through the Bid Express website at http://www.bidx.com to ensure proposals include all amendments, and should review the Bid Express Questions and Answers section for any project clarifications.

For this Project, the Sanitary Sewer System will comply with Section 817. All work shall comply with the local entity's (Owner) specifications for Sanitary Sewer System, except where superseded (partially or entirely) by Section 817 or the details and notes included in the plans. Contact the Owner for a copy of their specifications.

The Contractor will submit a unit cost for each individual Sanitary Sewer system items the contract requires. Even though the bid item is a lump sum price, the Engineer will adjust the lump sum price by any increase or decrease in the quantities indicated in the Summary of Quantities shown in the plans. To calculate the adjustment, the Engineer will determine the overrun or underrun quantity for each Sanitary Sewer system item listed in the contract. The Engineer will multiply any overrun or underrun quantity by the unit cost the Contractor provided below. The Engineer will increase the lump sum price by the cost of any overruns and decrease the lump sum price by the cost of any underruns.

The Engineer will only negotiate or receive new prices on Sanitary Sewer system items if they were not identified in the original Summary of Quantities. Standard fittings are not quantified separately and are considered subsidiary to all other Sanitary Sewer system bid items. The sum of the unit costs multiplied by the items listed in the *Summary of Quantities shall equal the Sanitary Sewer System lump sum price submitted in this proposal, or the unit cost submittal will be rejected. Contractor will then be required to resubmit unit costs that meet this requirement for the bid to be accepted.

The Secretary may reject this Proposal if the Contractor fails to complete this Required Contract Provision before noon on Friday after letting day.
