NOTICE TO VENDORS.docx

This is a Notice to Vendors issued by the South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) Allendale Maintenance division regarding the marking of railroad crossing stop bars at various locations throughout Allendale County. The notice indicates that vendors who previously submitted informal quotes in response to SCDOT Allendale Maintenance's Request for Informal Quote dated March 29, 2022, need not respond again unless they are unable to honor their previously quoted pricing. The advertisement through the South Carolina Business Opportunities (SCBO) was necessitated because Allendale Maintenance was unable to obtain three bona fide responsive and responsible written quotes through the initial informal quote process. A location list for the railroad crossing stop bar markings is referenced as being available separately in SCEIS.

The notice does not specify detailed pricing terms, contract duration, or funding information. The procurement is being managed by Jonathan Baysden, Procurement Officer/Manager for SCDOT Allendale Maintenance. Vendors are expected to reference their previous submissions from the March 29, 2022 informal quote request or submit new proposals if they cannot maintain their original pricing. No specific response date, award date, or contract term information is provided in this notice.
