About this file
This is a bid form addendum for the City of Palo Alto's Gas Main Replacement Project 25 (IFB #194217), a comprehensive natural gas infrastructure modernization initiative in Santa Clara County, California. The project involves the installation of approximately 25,600 linear feet of gas main pipelines in 2-inch, 4-inch, and 6-inch diameters using polyethylene (PE) materials, including installations under Matadero Creek and Barron Creek along Ross Road. The bid form includes 20 base bid items covering horizontal directional drilling and open trench excavation methods for various pipe sizes, gas service line installations, anode boxes, bollards, and associated infrastructure work such as tie-in/abandonment pits and sewer lateral investigations. A mandatory pre-bid meeting was scheduled for July 2, 2025, with bids due on July 24, 2025, before 3:00 pm. The project is anticipated to commence on January 20, 2026, with a completion timeline of 386 working days.
The bid form requires bidders to provide unit pricing for all base bid items with total item prices calculated by multiplying unit price by approximate quantities, with all costs including labor, equipment, materials, transportation, applicable taxes, profit, insurance, bonds, and overhead. Supplemental unit pricing is requested for 21 additional potential work items that may be authorized through field orders or change orders, covering items such as sewer lateral cleanouts, additional pavement and base installation, soil disposal, meter box replacements, and customer gas houseline relocations. Bid security of 10% of the total bid amount and performance and payment bonds for 100% of the contract sum are required. The project requires a Class A - General Engineering Contractor license, registration with the California Department of Industrial Relations, and compliance with prevailing wage regulations. Funding is provided through a federal grant from the Department of Transportation for Natural Gas Distribution Infrastructure Safety and Modernization, with liquidated damages set at $4,600 per day for unexcused delays and comprehensive insurance requirements mandated.
