23 WHM 2019 Bridge Beam Order

The Pennsylvania Game Commission is seeking bids for a specialized procurement of fabricated steel I-beams for bridge replacement projects, with jurisdictional scope spanning Dauphin County, Northumberland County, and Harveys Lake Borough. The solicitation, identified as "23 WHM 2019 Bridge Beam Order," was posted on March 13, 2019, with a bid submission deadline of April 10, 2019. The procurement specifically requires bidders to supply steel I-beams for multiple bridge replacement initiatives, with critical emphasis on compliance with the Steel Products Procurement Act. Bidders must submit their proposals electronically and adhere to strict terms and conditions outlined in the Invitation for Bids (IFB). The Commonwealth reserves the right to award the contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with the contract term commencing upon issuance of the Purchase Order and continuing until complete delivery and acceptance of the awarded items. Key evaluation criteria will include pricing, responsiveness, and contractor integrity.

The procurement opportunity appears to have standard nondiscrimination provisions and requires contractors to comply with sexual harassment clauses and contractor integrity provisions. Bidders must provide proof of appropriate insurance coverage and potentially provide performance security if the contract value exceeds specified thresholds. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned in the available documentation, the standard Commonwealth procurement guidelines likely include provisions for minority and women-owned business participation. No incumbent vendor is identified in the current documentation, and no specific budget range is disclosed for the bridge beam procurement. The contract will be executed through electronic submission, with all communications and potential addenda to be posted on the Commonwealth's website, ensuring transparency throughout the bidding process.
