This is an Ice Form (cost estimate documentation template) related to multiple state and local contract opportunities in Ohio, primarily involving Dorchester County's water infrastructure project and METRO's transit study. The document serves as a blank form for requisition purposes, requesting information on goods and services procurement, including fields for requisition numbers, estimate dates, procurement type classifications (new procurement, contract modification, or exercise of option), and supporting documentation requirements such as published list prices, historical pricing, comparable purchases, engineering estimates, and independent third-party estimates. The Stratton Capers 2 Water Line Upgrade – Phase 1 project, the primary contract opportunity, involves installing approximately 4,725 linear feet of 8-inch water main with eight fire hydrants, twenty-six gate valves, and ninety service reconnections across Dorchester County. Key dates include a non-mandatory pre-bid meeting on August 5, 2025, at 10:00 am, the final question deadline of August 15, 2025, at 5:00 pm, and bid opening on August 26, 2025, at 2:00 pm, with a substantial completion timeline of 120 calendar days from the Notice to Proceed.

The project is funded through Community Development Block Grant (CDBG #4-CI-24-004) with separate pricing for CDBG-funded and Dorchester County-funded items. Bidders must be registered in the federal System for Award Management (SAM) and provide performance and payment bonds at 100% of the total contract amount. The county will award to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder with potential for multiple awards based on contractor capacity. The procurement includes mandatory disadvantaged business participation requirements, including positive efforts to utilize small and minority-owned businesses, women's business enterprises, and labor surplus area firms. All materials must be manufactured in the United States in compliance with the Build America, Buy America Act. Contractors must comply with federal regulations including Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, the Davis-Bacon Act, and Executive Order 11246, maintaining detailed project records for a minimum of five years after project completion, with records subject to potential audits by HUD, the State, or the Grantee.
