7TH street mill and overlay project

The City of Wray, Colorado is soliciting sealed proposals for RFP 135-2025, a comprehensive street rehabilitation project targeting 7th Street. The primary scope involves a 2" milling and overlay of 7th Street, spanning approximately 4,200 linear feet by 35 feet wide, with an optional additional 1" fine asphalt mix overlay for up to six city blocks covering roughly 300' x 30'. Qualified firms are expected to submit comprehensive proposals demonstrating technical capability, municipal project experience, and detailed cost breakdowns. The evaluation process will utilize a 100-point scoring system, with points allocated across key categories: municipal experience (10 points), project performance capability (30 points), proposed project timeline (25 points), previous project quality (20 points), and contract pricing (15 points). A mandatory pre-bid meeting and site visit is scheduled for July 30, 2025, at 10:00 am at the Wray Council Chambers/Ambulance Station, with electronic proposal submissions required through BidNet by 12:00 pm on August 6, 2025. The project timeline anticipates commencement on September 1, 2025, with targeted completion by November 30, 2025.

The procurement requires successful bidders to provide a performance bond and payment bond, each representing 100% of the contract price, along with a two-year maintenance bond covering potential defects post-project acceptance. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned, contractors must submit comprehensive documentation including qualifications, professional references, insurance certificates, and granular cost breakdowns covering mobilization, surveying, materials, labor, and traffic control. Bidders will need to demonstrate robust insurance coverage, professional competency, and the technical capacity to execute a municipal infrastructure improvement project. Although a specific budget range is not disclosed, the project's scope suggests a significant capital investment for street rehabilitation. Interested contractors should carefully review the full RFP documentation to ensure complete compliance with the City of Wray's technical specifications and procedural requirements.
