The Orlando Utilities Commission (OUC) is requesting proposals for comprehensive asphalt and concrete services across OUC facilities, service territory, and customer areas in Orange County and Orlando, Florida, with proposals due September 15, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. EST.

Bidders must demonstrate a minimum of five years of experience with asphalt paving and urban projects including maintenance of traffic and work within tight rights-of-way. All personnel must hold current occupational licenses for applicable Florida jurisdictions and comply with FDOT Standard Specifications and MUTCD requirements. Insurance requirements include general liability of $2 million, auto liability of $1 million with MCS-90 endorsement, statutory workers' compensation, and pollution liability of $2 million, with policies allowing additional insured status and waiver of subrogation. Bidders must submit three verifiable references for similar work performed in Florida, complete subcontractor information with licenses and project history, health and safety program documentation including OSHA metrics, and disclosure of any planned subcontractor use. Drug-free workplace policies and employee screening procedures including criminal background checks are required.

The scope encompasses asphalt milling and repaving, concrete pavement and driveway construction, sidewalk and curb creation and restoration, sealcoating, striping, lime rock base installation, Portland cement applications, debris removal, sod replacement and irrigation repair, and general roadway and parking surface maintenance. Work assignments are determined by the OUC Project Manager on an as-needed basis. The pricing schedule contains 88 line items for standard services plus equipment and personnel rates, with two sample projects included for evaluation. Bidders must complete all workbook sheets and both sample projects.

The contract term is three years with one optional two-year renewal at OUC's election. Pricing must remain firm throughout the initial three-year period.

Payment discount options range from 1 to 3% based on timing. Bid bonds and payment/performance bonds are not required. Evaluation criteria include qualifications and experience, responsiveness to requirements, safety and quality programs, financial soundness, and price.
