The Jefferson Davis County Board of Supervisors, in coordination with the Office of State Aid Road Construction (OSARC), is procuring construction services for road maintenance and improvement work under State Aid Program (SAP) Project No. SAP-33(26)M in Jefferson Davis County, Mississippi. The scope of work encompasses the construction of 8.308 miles of maintenance on designated roads, with principal items including mobilization, unclassified excavation, granular material placement, asphalt paving and leveling, cold milling, seal coat application with aggregate cover material, thermoplastic striping in white and yellow, raised pavement markers, and reflectorized traffic signs. An optional add item for fog seal application using Grade LD-7 or CHPF-1 asphalt totaling 11,870 gallons is available for bidders to include in their proposals. Sealed bids must be received by 10:00 AM on March 26, 2026, at the Jefferson Davis County Administration Building in Prentiss, Mississippi, with public opening to follow immediately thereafter. The contract time for completion is 50 working days. Bid documents and specifications are available through the Office of the Chancery Clerk, the County Engineer's office, the Office of the State Aid Engineer in Jackson, and digitally through www.dunganengbids.com, where plan holders must register and purchase nonrefundable documents. Award will be made to the lowest qualified bidder based on published quantities in accordance with the latest edition of Mississippi Standard Specifications for State Aid Road and Bridge Construction.

Each bid submission must be accompanied by a certified check or bid bond equal to five percent of the total bid amount, made payable to Jefferson Davis County and the State of Mississippi, demonstrating the bidder's financial qualification and commitment to the project. The Board of Supervisors has affirmed its commitment to providing minority business enterprises full opportunity to submit bids without discrimination on the grounds of race, color, or national origin. No specific incumbent vendors, current contractors, or existing infrastructure integration requirements are identified in the procurement documents. No budget range or award value is disclosed in the available documentation; however, the scope of work suggests a substantial construction project given the 8.308-mile extent and the comprehensive list of work items. Bidders are required to demonstrate qualification as contractors capable of performing road construction work meeting Mississippi state standards and must comply with all bonding and insurance requirements as specified in the contract documents.
