Ashland Readiness Center Trash Enclosure- Proj. 20D2Y

The Wisconsin National Guard is seeking a construction contractor for the Ashland Readiness Center Trash Enclosure Project, designated as Project 20D2Y, located in Ashland County, Wisconsin. The procurement opportunity involves constructing a specialized infrastructure improvement consisting of a reinforced concrete pad designed for dumpster and recycled material storage. Specific project requirements include excavating and installing an oversized concrete slab with designated areas for dumpster storage and a garbage truck lift apron, accompanied by chain link fencing and lockable swinging access gates. The project's comprehensive scope encompasses not only the primary concrete structure but also includes essential site preparation and restoration elements such as erosion control, backfilling, turf restoration, and complete site cleanup. The contract opportunity was initially posted on August 19, 2020, with proposals due by September 24, 2020, indicating a relatively short procurement timeline of approximately one month for interested contractors to prepare and submit their bids.

While specific set-aside designations or disadvantaged enterprise requirements are not explicitly detailed in the provided documentation, the project appears to be a standard public infrastructure improvement initiative for the Wisconsin National Guard. The project's focused scope and specialized nature suggest that bidders should have demonstrated experience in municipal or military facility construction, with particular expertise in concrete work, fencing installation, and site restoration. No incumbent vendor information or specific budget range was provided in the original contract opportunity description. The project's location in Ashland County and its association with the Wisconsin National Guard implies that local contractors with relevant construction credentials and familiarity with military facility improvements may have a competitive advantage. Potential bidders would likely need to demonstrate technical capabilities in concrete construction, erosion control, and site preparation to be considered for this contract opportunity.
