The Boggan Ridge Water Association is seeking sealed bids for Contract 1 Waterline Relocation, a construction project located in Tippah County, Mississippi. The procurement involves constructing a new waterline that includes bores, minor earthwork, and new services. Bidders must submit sealed proposals by September 16, 2025, at 10:00 AM local time, with electronic submissions accepted through www.clearpointbids.com. All potential bidders are required to purchase contract documents to be placed on the official planholders list and must provide a 5% bid bond or certified check with their submission. Contractors must have appropriate Mississippi state licensing for contracts exceeding $75,000, and must obtain a certificate of responsibility. The project requires detailed technical specifications for waterline installation, including specific construction methods and service connection requirements.

The procurement encourages participation from minority and women's business enterprises as prime contractors and subcontractors. Successful bidders will be required to provide a performance and payment bond for the full contract amount, with an alternative option to post the full bid amount in cash with the Rawls Springs Utility District. The Boggan Ridge Water Association maintains an Equal Opportunity Employer stance and reserves the right to waive irregularities and reject any or all bids. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly detailed, the requirement for contractor licensing and bonding suggests a substantial project investment. The association demonstrates a commitment to inclusive procurement practices by actively seeking diverse contractor participation and maintaining transparency in the bidding process.
