Base Course Gravel CSP

The state of South Dakota, specifically Custer State Park located in Codington County, is seeking proposals for the purchase and delivery of base course gravel for road surfacing projects. The contract opportunity requires vendors to furnish labor, tools, equipment, and materials necessary to deliver base course gravel that meets specific gradation requirements. Two distinct delivery locations are specified: Fisherman Flats Road (at the intersection with Swint Road) and Mount Coolidge, with two potential tonnage options of either 2,000 or 2,500 tons. The project has specific timeline requirements, with Fisherman Flats Road delivery to be completed by May 1, 2023, and Mount Coolidge delivery scheduled between June 9-23, 2023. Interested bidders are required to contact Jayme Severyn at (605)280-1811 to schedule a site visit, and the proposal is due by February 16, 2023. The state will provide loaders and operators at delivery sites to assist with gravel placement, and vendors must ensure their aggregate meets the technical specifications outlined in the project documents.

The procurement documents do not explicitly outline any set-aside designations, disadvantaged business enterprise requirements, or preferences for specific vendor types. No incumbent vendor information is provided, and there are no stated budget ranges or specific award values in the available documentation. The procurement appears to be open to standard commercial vendors capable of meeting the technical specifications for base course gravel delivery. Potential bidders should carefully review the detailed specifications in the attached documents, particularly the gradation requirements for the aggregate material. While specific pricing details are not disclosed, vendors will need to prepare competitive proposals that meet the technical requirements for gravel composition, delivery logistics, and project timelines. Interested vendors should thoroughly review the South Dakota Vendor Manual and the specific project specifications to ensure full compliance with state procurement protocols.
