REQUEST_FOR_PROPOSAL_CHANGE.pdf

This is a Request for Proposal Change document issued by the City of Carmel, Indiana's Board of Public Works and Safety for the 6" Water Main Gray Road to Hazel Dell project. The document provides a template for contractors to submit proposals regarding potential modifications to an existing contract, with proposals required within fifteen (15) calendar days of the request date. The change request pertains to directional drilling of approximately 2,600 feet of 6-inch water main from Gray Road to the Wastewater Treatment Plant at Hazel Dell along 96th Street. Contractors must indicate whether the proposed change will result in an increase, decrease, or no change to the contract price and/or contract time, and must identify the effect of the change on the project's Substantial Completion and Final Completion dates if accepted within a specified timeframe.

Proposal submissions must include four (4) copies of a detailed breakdown showing quantities, cost of materials, equipment, labor, overhead, and profit, along with the basis for any additional time requested. The request explicitly states that acceptance of the proposal does not authorize the contractor to proceed with or stop previously scheduled work; a Contract Change Order and Notice To Proceed will be issued upon approval. The contractor must submit the proposal by the date specified by the Engineer and approved by the Owner's Representative. This document serves as a change management mechanism for the ongoing water main installation project and requires careful cost and schedule analysis from interested contractors.
