2025 DB Tank & Soil ISID

The Michigan Department of Technology, Management and Budget (DTMB) and the Department of Great Lakes, Environment Energy (EGLE) are seeking professional environmental design-build Indefinite-Scope Indefinite-Delivery (ISID) services for tank and soil removal across multiple state locations. The procurement focuses on removing contamination sources from former underground storage tank systems, including design, construction, restoration, and reporting in compliance with Part 201/Part 213 of Michigan's Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act. Qualified firms must provide services such as underground storage tank (UST) removal, contaminated soil excavation, site sampling, waste characterization, and comprehensive project reporting. Proposals are due on April 3, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern through the SIGMA VSS website, with questions permitted to be submitted to the Project Director by March 11, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern. Evaluation criteria include demonstrated experience with similar projects in the past five years, organizational capabilities, key personnel qualifications, professional liability insurance, and ability to handle projects ranging from under $25,000 to larger assignments. Contractors must be pre-qualified by the DB-ISID program and provide construction/excavation subcontractor information for each district where they intend to provide services.

The contract does not appear to have specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, but it does require vendors to certify their Michigan business status and meet certain responsibility criteria. Contractors must demonstrate the ability to comply with federal (EPA, OSHA, DOT) and state agency regulations, including prevailing wage requirements for construction trades. The contract term is two years with a potential one-year extension, and while no specific incumbent vendors are mentioned, the state expects to select multiple design-build entities. Performance and payment bonds are required for projects exceeding $50,000, and contractors must provide comprehensive insurance coverage. The contract allows for participation in MIDeal, enabling contractors to work with local governments and other eligible entities at specified billable rates. While no precise total contract value is specified, individual project assignments are typically expected to be below $250,000, with a standard provisionary allowance of $10,000 per project for unforeseen costs. Billing rates will include overhead expenses, and travel reimbursements are limited to projects over 100 miles from the contractor's office.
