MANUFACTURERS_LIST.pdf

This is a Manufacturers List form issued by the City of Carmel, Board of Public Works and Safety, Hamilton County, Indiana, for the Raised Crosswalk Improvements project at Gray Road and Hazel Dell Roundabouts. The form requires bidders to identify specific manufacturers for each piece of equipment proposed for furnishing under the contract. Bidders must enter exactly one manufacturer name per equipment item in the spaces provided, and failure to do so may render the bid non-responsive if deemed material. The project encompasses construction of raised crosswalks at six intersections, including installation of storm sewer, full depth patching, curb and gutter replacement, and sidewalk construction. Sealed bids are due by 9:00 am on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, with a non-mandatory pre-bid conference scheduled for Thursday, January 22, 2026, at 1:00 pm. The project is divided into four phases with staggered timelines, with substantial completion targeted for August 10, 2026, and final completion by September 10, 2026.

Upon contract award, all listed equipment items must be furnished by the named manufacturers unless specifically authorized changes are made with the owner's prior consent. Equipment substitutions are permitted only with owner approval, and preliminary acceptance based on manufacturer designation does not waive compliance with applicable drawings and specifications. All equipment must achieve full conformity with project specifications regardless of manufacturer preliminary acceptance. Bidders must submit a 10 percent bid bond or certified check, evidence of insurance, a surety letter of intent, completed manufacturers and subcontractors lists, and a non-collusion affidavit. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with successful contractors required to provide 100 percent performance and payment bonds plus a 10 percent maintenance bond for three years post-completion. The project involves approximately 3,409 linear feet of construction work and substantial infrastructure improvements funded through City of Carmel municipal appropriations.
