Asphalt crack seal

The state and local contract opportunity is for an Asphalt Crack Seal project in Richland Village, Michigan, posted by the local jurisdiction on May 1, 2019, with proposals due on May 7, 2019. The procurement involves comprehensive asphalt pavement crack sealing services, specifically requiring mechanical routing and cleaning of cracks 1/4" or larger, followed by installation of hot rubber sealant. Contractors must demonstrate at least five years of successful experience in similar infrastructure maintenance work and comply with specific technical requirements, including ASTM D6690 standards for crack seal materials. The project is scheduled to commence no earlier than June 17, 2019, and must be completed by July 31, 2019, with work permitted Monday through Saturday from 7 AM to 7 PM. Bidders are required to submit several mandatory documents, including a 5% bid bond or certified check, a Familial Disclosure Affidavit, and an Iran Economic Sanctions Act Affidavit. The solicitation indicates that the jurisdiction reserves the right to award the contract to a single contractor and may not award work for all identified locations based on lineal footage and cost considerations.

While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned, the procurement includes an 18-month warranty on materials and installation, with potential penalties for incomplete work or inadequate site cleanup. The bidding documents do not reference incumbent vendors or require integration with existing technology infrastructure. The procurement appears to be open to qualified contractors with demonstrated experience in asphalt maintenance, though specific budgetary ranges are not disclosed in the available documentation. The project encompasses multiple potential work sites, suggesting a comprehensive approach to infrastructure maintenance. Interested contractors must carefully review technical specifications, particularly the requirements for hot-applied crack seal materials suitable for asphalt and concrete pavements, and ensure compliance with all submission requirements before the May 7, 2019 bid deadline.
