About this file

This document is a comprehensive technical specification for a Detroit Water and Sewerage Department (DWSD) contract for as-needed catch basin, sewer inspection, repair, and replacement services. The contract, designated as Project No. DWS-971 and Contract No. 534107, is designed to provide comprehensive municipal infrastructure maintenance services throughout the City of Detroit. The project scope includes multiple specialized tasks such as closed-circuit television (CCTV) and multi-sensor platform sewer inspections, cleaning and rehabilitation of circular and non-circular storm and sanitary sewers up to 72 inches in size, laser and sonar inspections, point repairs, manhole inspections, structure repairs, grouting, lining, dye testing of sewer laterals, and site restoration services.

The contract is structured as an as-needed, unit price agreement, meaning the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department will issue work orders as required. The contractor will be responsible for providing all labor, equipment, and materials for the entire work scope, with unit prices remaining unchanged throughout the contract duration. The contract includes provisions for handling various infrastructure challenges, such as sewer cave-ins, earth retention, access pit creation, and surface restoration. The contractor must maintain flexibility to mobilize crews immediately and be on-call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. While specific contract duration is not explicitly stated, the document suggests the contract will be in effect through April 2025, with potential for ongoing maintenance and repair work across Detroit's municipal infrastructure.
