The Michigan Department of Technology, Management and Budget (DTMB) and the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) are seeking a contractor to perform a comprehensive remedial investigation and environmental remediation at a Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST) site located at 13431, 13437, and 13443 Van Dyke Street in Detroit, Wayne County. The project involves extensive environmental site assessment and cleanup, including demolition of pavement, removal of abandoned underground storage tank systems, excavation and disposal of approximately 5,100 tons of contaminated soils and groundwater, and site restoration. Key deliverables include collection of verification soil samples, backfilling with certified clean fill, and restoration with grass seeding and infrastructure repair. The project has a mandatory walk-through inspection scheduled for July 10, 2025, at 1:30 pm, with bid submissions due on July 23, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern time through SIGMA VSS. Contractors must submit electronic bids with a 5% bid security and provide proof of State Project Registration from the Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity. The total contract time is set at 80 days following the notice to proceed, with a provisional allowance of $15,000 included in the bid schedule.

The procurement includes provisions for Service Disabled Veteran Owned Businesses (SDVOB), offering a 10% pricing preference for businesses that are 51% or more owned by qualified service-disabled veterans. To qualify, businesses must provide documentation including proof of service, service-connected disability, and business ownership, with the National Veterans Business Development Council (NVBDC) certification accepted as an alternative verification method. The state does not pre-certify SDVOBs and will not accept federal certification databases. Contractors must also comply with prevailing wage rates and provide performance and payment bonds. While a specific award value is not explicitly stated, the project involves comprehensive environmental remediation with unit price adjustments allowed within 50% of estimated quantities. The project requires detailed documentation, including certified payroll records, waste manifests, and comprehensive project submittals, indicating a complex and rigorous procurement process focused on environmental restoration and compliance with Michigan environmental regulations.
