The work area is located approximately 6.5 miles from the Park North Unit entrance. A competitive Invitation for Bids/Sealed Bid process will be used. The solicitation number will be 140P6321B0001.

This project is set-aside 100% for Small Businesses using NAICS Code 238990 with a size standard of $16.5 million.

The magnitude of this project is between $100,000 and $250,000, and the intent is to issue a firm-fixed price, construction contract in response to the solicitation.

A formal Invitation for Bids with construction specifications will be issued on/about November 13, 2020. This is the preliminary notice of a solicitation that will follow. All specifications documents/drawings will be provided if/when the government proceeds with a formal solicitation. The responses will be due approximately 30 days after the solicitation issue date and it is anticipated that the bid opening date will be scheduled for December. The specific date will be announced in the solicitation that will follow this notice.

A pre-bid meeting is tentatively scheduled for November 24, 2020 at 10AM where contractors will be afforded an opportunity to view the worksite.

Prime contractors interested in working at Theodore Roosevelt to remove old asphalt, install new asphalt, and install new adjoining accessible concrete walkways should prepare to submit a competitive bid for this project. Work will include removal of approximately 9,740 SF of old asphalt materials to be recycled, grading, preparation for approximately 10,885 SF of new asphalt with 991 SF of accessible concrete adjoining walkways. All asphalt demolished shall be recycled to the greatest extent possible. The use of equipment to prep the areas for the new asphalt installation and to demo the old will be limited to two points of egress by personnel and equipment to limit the damage done to park grounds. The egress points to be used will be a path/road already established. The government anticipates that work would begin in May of 2021 with a 60-calendar day completion schedule. Due to summer visitation, it is expected that once contractor commences with disturbance of the project area that construction activity persists through completion.
