The Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) is conducting a Request for Competitive Quotes (RFCQ) procurement to select one qualified contractor to rebuild 726 feet of Type 2 fence along US Highway 101 at milepost 324.5 in Gold Beach, Curry County, Oregon. The scope of work requires complete reconstruction of the fencing in accordance with ODOT Standard Drawing RD810 and the 2024 Oregon Standard Specifications for Construction, including all labor, materials, transportation, equipment, and services necessary for completion. The project deliverable is the installation of Type 2 barbed and woven wire fence meeting specific technical requirements for materials, dimensions, post spacing, and construction methods, with connections to existing T-posts on the north end and an existing metal post on the south end while retaining existing gate posts in place. Qualified contractors must hold a current State Construction Contractors Board (CCB) license and maintain a Public Works bond filed with the CCB before commencing work. The project timeline requires work commencement following issuance of a Notice to Proceed, with substantial completion by June 15, 2026, and final completion by June 26, 2026, with liquidated damages assessed at $50.00 per calendar day for delays beyond the substantial completion date. The bid submission deadline is April 16, 2026, with requests for clarifications or approval of equivalent products required to be submitted no later than seven calendar days prior to closing. Award will be made to the responsible, responsive offeror submitting the lowest total quote price, and quotes must remain firm offers valid for a minimum of 30 calendar days from the closing date.

This procurement is restricted to Emerging Small Business (ESB) certified contractors registered with the State of Oregon's Certification Office for Business Inclusion and Diversity (COBID), ensuring set-aside eligibility limited to qualifying small businesses.
