This is a Request for Sealed Proposals (RFSP) issued by the South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) for the procurement of traffic control services and personnel. The project encompasses traffic control operations for highway construction and maintenance activities across South Carolina, requiring on-call traffic control services including flagging, advance warning signs, lane closures, and related traffic management support. SCDOT seeks qualified contractors capable of providing immediate response services with personnel available on a 24/7 basis. The proposal submission deadline is specified in the solicitation documents, with award anticipated following evaluation of submitted bids. The contract term includes an initial period with renewal options to extend services based on performance and continued need, allowing SCDOT flexibility in managing ongoing traffic control requirements throughout the state's transportation network.

The pricing structure requires contractors to submit sealed bids with unit rates for labor, equipment, and materials necessary to provide comprehensive traffic control services. This solicitation is open to all qualified South Carolina vendors meeting the stated requirements, with no specific set-asides or incumbent protections noted. Contractors must demonstrate adequate insurance coverage, bonding capacity, and compliance with South Carolina transportation regulations and federal highway safety standards. Funding for awarded contracts derives from SCDOT's annual budget allocation for construction support services and maintenance activities, with contract values dependent on actual service utilization and call-out frequency during the contract period.
