RE-ISSUE_ITB_CIP260112_Surface_Depression_NE_17TH_RD_-_Exhibit_B_-_Price_Proposal.xlsx

This is a Price Proposal form (Exhibit B) for the City of Ocala's re-issued Invitation to Bid (ITB# CIP/260112) for grout injection services at a surface depression located at 1155 NE 17th Road Right of Way in Ocala, Florida. The project requires an experienced contractor to furnish all labor, equipment, and materials to complete comprehensive grout injection work in accordance with recommendations from a Geotechnical Site Exploration Report prepared by GEO-TECH, INC. Bidders must possess a minimum of five years' experience in injection grouting services and hold a Florida license as either a General Contractor or Underground Utility Contractor. The work must be completed within seven calendar days from the Notice to Proceed, with full project completion required within 30 days. Work shall be performed during standard business hours of 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Monday through Friday, with 48-hour advance notice required for any work outside these hours. The price proposal includes four line items: Mobilization (lump sum), Compaction Grout (65 cubic yards), Right of Way Permit ($50.00), and a Lump Sum amount for all other grout injection services. All line items in the Price Proposal must be completed by bidders, and award will be made to the lowest bidder meeting all specified requirements.

The pricing structure is based on unit prices, with the City paying only for actual units provided, installed, or constructed. The estimated quantities in the Price Proposal are based on the geotechnical report and should not be construed as guaranteed minimums. A five percent retainage will be held until final project acceptance, and liquidated damages of $1,318 per calendar day will be assessed if work is not completed by the deadline for contracts under $299,999. Required insurance includes Commercial General Liability coverage with limits of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate, Commercial Automotive Liability with combined limits of $1,000,000, and Workers' Compensation per Florida statutory requirements. No specific total budget is stated, though the pricing structure and sample proposal suggesting a minimal base cost of $50.00 indicates a relatively small project scope. No set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises, incumbent vendors, or existing infrastructure integration requirements are mentioned in the procurement documents.
