ITB 24-101627

June 18, 2024

TO: ALL BIDDERS UNDER ITB No. 24-101627

FROM: Department of Purchasing and Contracting, DeKalb County, Georgia

ADDENDUM NO. 2

ITB 24-101627 Asphaltic Concrete Pavement Repairs (Three (3) Year Multiyear Contract)

1. We have received the following counter question in response to the questions from Addendum #1 for this ITB. The questions and responses are below:

a. Question: Why is a General Contractors License required for this ITB when it is not required for any of the items listed under the Bidders Unit Price Form?

Answer: A General Contractor’s License is required to perform any work totaling $2,500.00 or more in the State of Georgia.

Counter Question: Concern: Asphalt nor concrete or striping is not listed as one of the constructions trades that requires a GC license at this time, however a GDOT Contractors certification is suggested for highway work. Under O.C.G.A. § 43-41-17, Traditional specialty contractors will not be required to carry a residential or general contractor license but will be required to comply with all applicable national, state, and local codes and ordinances.

Asphalt Paving Concrete Cast in Place Concrete Formwork Concrete Precast

Counter Answer: A General Contractors License is required due to the following verbiage from the Georgia Secretary of State Website https://sos.ga.gov/page/traditional-specialty-contractors-policy-statements under Traditional Specialty Contracts, first bullet where the following is stated:

“Anyone who is included on this list who is working for a licensed residential or general contractor under a valid permit is exempted from having to hold a residential and general contractor license of his or her own. However, such individual must ensure that he or she complies with any legal requirements (such as those found in Chapter 14 of Title 43) for his or her specialty trade.”

Therefore, prime contractors responding to this solicitation must carry the General Contractor's license, while subcontractors performing the specialty trade are not required to carry the license.

2. All other conditions remain in full force and effect.

3. It is the responsibility of each bidder to ensure that he/she is aware of all addenda issued under this ITB.
