Asphalt Replacement

The state and local contract opportunity involves an asphalt replacement project for the Lapeer County Intermediate School District (ISD) located in Michigan's Kent County. The procurement is seeking sealed competitive bids from qualified contractors to perform comprehensive asphalt replacement at the Education and Technology Center. Potential bidders are required to schedule a pre-bid meeting with Jeff Hurley, the Maintenance Supervisor, to obtain detailed bid specifications. The project timeline mandates that work must commence no later than July 1, 2025, and be fully completed by August 15, 2025. Contractors must submit sealed bids by 2:00 PM EST on June 10, 2025, at the Lapeer County ISD Administration Building, with bids remaining guaranteed for 90 days from the opening date.

Bidders must demonstrate specific qualifications and meet stringent insurance requirements, including Worker's Compensation coverage of at least $100,000, Liability coverage of minimum $300,000, and additional coverage for vehicles, property damage, and personal injury. For bids exceeding $50,000, contractors must provide a certified check or bid bond equivalent to 5% of the base bid. The district requires potential contractors to submit three professional references and certify they are not an Iran-linked business. While no specific set-aside designations are mentioned, the procurement appears open to qualified contractors meeting the specified insurance and reference requirements. The district reserves the right to accept or reject any submitted bids, and as a tax-exempt entity, the project suggests a focus on competitive pricing and comprehensive asphalt replacement services. Although a specific budget range is not explicitly stated, the detailed insurance and bonding requirements indicate a substantial project scope.
