About this file
This is Amendment #1 to an Invitation to Bid (ITB #40100-13904) issued by the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) for McNairy manhole repairs. The amendment clarifies key project specifications and addresses contractor inquiries submitted prior to the May 15, 2026 written questions deadline. The project involves junction box and manhole cover repair and replacement at 15 locations along State Route 15 in McNairy County, with work to be completed within 45 calendar days from Purchase Order issuance. The amendment confirms that new manhole lids do not require covers, specifies the use of hi-early strength concrete for all lid fabrication as solid covers, and clarifies that TDOT is not enforcing standard concrete cure times or seven- to 28-day waiting periods; contractors may transport and install lids at their discretion once confident no damage will occur. The bid opening occurred on May 8, 2026 at 1:00 PM CDT, with bids closing on June 10, 2026 at 1:00 PM CDT.
The amendment adds Performance Bond and Payment Bond requirements to the Terms and Conditions sections 8.5 and 8.6, respectively, addressing a bidder inquiry about bonding. Certified payroll submissions are not required. A bidders list will be made available during the Open File Period in the procurement file following the Intent to Award notification. The amendment clarifies that project duration may extend beyond the initial 45-day completion window to account for setup time, material ordering, and concrete curing periods, though no specific contract term extensions are formally documented in this amendment.
