T2505S Bid Amendment 2 11.06.2025.docx

This Bid Amendment #2 document, issued by the New Jersey Department of the Treasury Division of Purchase and Property, modifies the solicitation for Consulting Services: NJDOT Non-Infrastructure Research (Bid Solicitation #25DPP01187). The amendment extends the quote submission deadline from November 20, 2025 to December 5, 2025 at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time. An optional pre-quote conference was held on October 6, 2025, with confirmed attendance from five firms: TAMD Management, LLC; Cambridge Systematics, Inc.; Greenman-Pedersen, Inc.; Dewberry Engineers, Inc.; and Jerome M. Lutin, PhD, LLC. The contract encompasses Category 2 Non-Infrastructure consulting services with a base term extending through February 28, 2029, and includes potential two-year extension options. The scope includes four to eight research projects annually across transportation-related domains including environmental resources, multimodal services, transportation data and safety, traffic operations, and travel demand modeling, with individual projects ranging from full-year studies to rapid research initiatives of less than six months.

Bidders are required to submit pricing for all eight labor categories—ranging from Assistant Engineer to Chief Engineer—using all-inclusive hourly rates across four contract years with potential annual adjustments evaluated through a weighted consumption/market basket model. The solicitation includes a 5% pricing preference for small, woman-owned, minority-owned, veteran-owned, and disabled veteran-owned businesses. Notably, Greenman-Pedersen, Inc., the previous infrastructure services contractor, is explicitly prohibited from bidding on this non-infrastructure category. All bidders must provide comprehensive documentation including ownership disclosure forms, subcontractor utilization plans, technical quotes, sample case studies, and state-supplied price sheets. All instructions, terms, and conditions of the original bid solicitation remain unchanged except for the extended deadline and conference information outlined in this amendment.
