Asphalt Recycle Project

Alpena Public Schools is seeking bids for a Recycled Asphalt Project located in Allegan County, Michigan, focusing on crushing and repurposing approximately 3,000 tons of stockpiled reclaimed asphalt across three district sites: the AHS site, Transportation Center, and Central Office. The procurement involves two primary bid options: a base bid requiring crushing, trucking, and spreading recycled asphalt, and an alternate bid for spreading pulverized asphalt at the same locations. Bidders must provide comprehensive information including service performance references, financial references, and detailed business structure documentation. The evaluation criteria extend beyond price, considering factors such as maintenance and service agreements, conformity to specifications, delivery and installation timelines, service and warranty levels, and contractor references. Key dates include a pre-bid meeting on May 29, 2025, bid submissions due on June 10, 2025, at 1:00 p.m. local time, and project completion targeted for August 15, 2025, with board award tentatively scheduled for June 9, 2025.

The bid opportunity does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Contractors must complete several mandatory forms, including a Familial Disclosure Statement and an Iran Economic Sanctions Act Certification, and are required to carry specific insurance coverages, with Alpena Public Schools to be listed as an additional insured. The project necessitates that bidders submit sealed proposals in person, with facsimile bids expressly prohibited. While no specific funding sources are detailed, bidders must maintain bid firmness for 60 days from the opening date. All bid-related questions must be submitted in writing to Simon Zolnierek, the Supervisor of Facilities, with oral communications not being considered. The district reserves the right to accept or reject any bid that does not meet its comprehensive needs. Although a total project value is not explicitly stated, the scope involves work across multiple district sites totaling approximately 171,000 square feet.
