The City of Wichita, Kansas, through its Public Works & Utilities Department, is soliciting bids for the 2025 Outsourced Pavement Preservation Program CIP Localized Street Repair project, which encompasses comprehensive infrastructure maintenance across multiple districts. The procurement involves extensive pavement preservation and repair services, including partial and full depth asphalt repairs, concrete pavement repairs, thermal crack repairs, and associated infrastructure work. Specific deliverables include 1,032 tons of full depth asphalt repair, 2,970 square yards of 8-inch reinforced concrete pavement repair, 2,879 linear feet of thermal crack repair, and 1,144 linear feet of standard combined curb and gutter installation. Contractors must complete all work within 60 working days from the project start date, which will be issued 20 calendar days after contract award. The bid submission deadline is August 29, 2025, at 10:00 AM, with a mandatory pre-bid conference scheduled for August 25, 2025, at 10:00 AM at the City's Central Maintenance Facility. Evaluation will focus on the lowest and best total net bid from a responsible and responsive vendor, with a required 5% bid bond.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly mentioned in the documentation. The project requires comprehensive insurance coverage, including commercial general liability ($1,000,000 per occurrence), automobile liability ($1,000,000), and workers' compensation. Contractors must also provide public communication support, including distributing street repair pamphlets to affected properties and providing 48-hour notice to property owners. While no incumbent vendors were identified, the project involves repairs across multiple street segments in Sedgwick County, including areas like NE of 143rd & 13th, Sand Pointe, Exchange/Savannah, Emerson, Ross Parkway, Mount Vernon, Kellogg, and Washington streets. Although a precise budget range was not specified, the detailed scope of work suggests a substantial infrastructure investment, with work spanning residential, collector, and arterial road classifications and involving various pavement surface treatments including asphalt mat, composite, and concrete surfaces.
