#8 Millings for Beaver County

Beaver County Department of Transportation is seeking to procure recycled No. 8 aggregate from Reclaimed Asphalt Product (RAP) through an Invitation for Bid (IFB) released on April 7, 2022, with proposals due by April 21, 2022. The procurement involves processing approximately 10,200 tons of RAP millings into 5,500 tons of Recycled No. 8 SRL=G aggregate for delivery to designated Department stockpiles within Beaver County. Vendor requirements include processing millings to have 100% passing the 1/2" screen, meeting SRL=G specifications, and ensuring the aggregate is free of contaminants. Vendors may substitute or blend the recycled aggregate with Type A, No. 8 virgin limestone aggregate from an approved Bulletin 14 source. Deliveries are expected to occur between June 1, 2022, and October 1, 2022, at a rate of 300-500 tons per day per location. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder on a single award basis, with the contract term commencing upon issuance of a purchase order and continuing until all items are delivered and accepted by the Commonwealth.

The IFB does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. While no incumbent vendor is mentioned, the procurement includes specific requirements for worker protection, investment certification, and documentation. Stockpile verification testing will be conducted, and vendors must coordinate closely with Department personnel. The document does not provide specific budget ranges or precise award values, though it indicates the total volume of millings to be processed is approximately 10,200 tons, with an expected output of 5,500 tons of recycled aggregate. The Commonwealth reserves the right to purchase additional items through a separate competitive bidding process if deemed in its best interest. The procurement also includes standard Commonwealth contractual requirements such as nondiscrimination provisions, contractor integrity guidelines, and background check requirements.
