The Michigan Department of Technology, Management and Budget (DTMB) and the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) are seeking a contractor for the Kavco Landfill AST Decommissioning project located at 1001 W. Day Road in Plainwell, Michigan. The procurement involves the comprehensive removal and disposal of a 25,000-gallon aboveground storage tank (AST) installed in 2004, which has significantly subsided. Key project deliverables include disconnecting and disposing of remediation system piping, removing the AST and associated equipment, handling residual condensate water and sludge, and reconstructing an equipment pad and gravel pad. A mandatory walk-through inspection is scheduled for 07/31/2025 at 10:00 A.M., with bid responses due on 08/13/2025 at 2:00 p.m. Eastern time through SIGMA VSS. The contract duration is 90 days from the Notice to Proceed, and bidders must provide a 5% bid guarantee, with performance and payment bonds required for bids over $50,000. Contractors must submit detailed pricing for various project components, including mobilization, AST removal, and disposal, and are required to provide proof of State Project Registration.

The procurement includes a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Business (SDVOB) preference program that offers a 10% pricing preference for businesses owned by qualified service-disabled veterans. To qualify, businesses must be at least 51% owned by one or more veterans with a service-connected disability and provide documentation including proof of military service and disability status. The National Veterans Business Development Council (NVBDC) certification is an acceptable verification method. Bidders are limited to submitting two attachments (less than 25 MB each), including bid documents and potential Qualified Disabled Veteran (QDV) information. The project utilizes NIGP Codes 90976, 92678, 92691, 98846, 91240, and 96878, and AECOM serves as the primary point of contact, located at 3950 Sparks Dr SE, Grand Rapids, MI 49546. While a specific budget range is not explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the AST decommissioning and infrastructure reconstruction suggests a significant project investment. An EGLE contractor will conduct system startup/testing following the bid opening, and the selected contractor will be invited to participate in this process.
