This is a bid tab document for Beaufort County, South Carolina's Bay Pines Drainage Improvements project, an Invitation for Bid (IFB #041426) addressing stormwater infrastructure repairs and flooding mitigation in a residential area. The project encompasses 27 line items totaling approximately 1,056 plant and seed units, including mobilization, traffic control, removal and installation of reinforced concrete pipes (518 linear feet ranging from 12-inch to 24-inch diameter), inlets, catch basins, manholes, headwalls, erosion and sediment control measures, concrete and asphalt surface restoration, wooden fence repair and replacement, and native plant landscaping restoration. The bid tab itemizes quantities for each line item with columns for unit prices and extended costs, though specific pricing has not yet been populated. The non-mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for March 31, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. via Microsoft Teams, with electronic proposals due no later than 3:00 p.m. EST on April 14, 2026 through the Procurement Portal. The contract duration is 365 calendar days following the Notice to Proceed, with work commencing within 10 days of that notice.

The project implements two alternatives for drainage upsizing: Alternative 2 upgrades the cul-de-sac's 12-inch pipe to 18-inch under the roadway transitioning to dual 18-inch pipes, while Alternative 3 increases roadside pipes to 15-inch and dual 12-inch configurations with a main pipe increased to 24-inch diameter, collectively designed to nearly eliminate road overtopping during 10-year storm events. Bidders must submit a 5% bid bond and comply with workers' compensation and liability insurance requirements ($1,000,000 commercial general liability, $500,000 automobile liability, and $2,000,000 umbrella liability), with 100% performance and payment bonds required upon award. Monthly progress payments will be made at 90% of completed work with 10% retained until final completion, and liquidated damages are assessed at $1,000 per calendar day for delays. The project is subject to Beaufort County's Small and Minority Business Participation Program, requiring contractors to demonstrate good faith efforts to recruit and utilize certified small and minority business enterprises unless performing 100% of work with their own forces, with monthly compliance reports due by the fifth day of each month. County permits are waived for the successful bidder; however, contractors remain responsible for obtaining all required state, federal, and local regulatory permits and paying associated fees. The specific contract award value is not disclosed in the available documents.
