BASE COURSE MATERIALS TYPE II

The New Mexico Department of Transportation (NMDOT), specifically targeting District One across multiple patrol locations including Anthony, Cliff, Silver City, Lordsburg, Animas, Deming, Las Cruces, Hatch, Williamsburg, Winston, Magdalena, and Socorro, is issuing an Invitation to Bid (ITB) No. 60-80500-25-17181 for Base Course Aggregate Type II materials. The procurement seeks to establish a one-year price agreement with options to extend up to three additional years, utilizing a multiple vendor award methodology focused on lowest overall project cost and delivery capability. Bidders must provide Base Course Aggregate Type II either delivered to specified patrol locations or available for pickup at the vendor's plant, with strict material specifications requiring 100% passing a 1-inch sieve and 4-12% passing the #200 sieve. The materials must be delivered within 90 days of purchase order issuance, and all shipments require a certified scale ticket. Bids are due on November 4, 2025, at 2:00 pm and will be opened electronically via Microsoft Teams, with the NMDOT reserving the right to test materials and reject non-conforming submissions.

While no specific set-aside designations or disadvantaged enterprise requirements are explicitly mentioned in the documentation, the procurement appears open to qualified vendors capable of meeting the technical specifications and delivery requirements. The estimated award value is not directly stated, but pricing will be calculated per ton of Base Course Aggregate, suggesting a potentially significant contract value depending on the volume of materials required. Contractors must be prepared to source materials independently and submit samples for acceptance, with all final decisions to be made by the District Engineer. The ITB includes an accompanying document for truck hauling services (No. 60-80500-25-17187), which provides additional context for potential transportation and logistics requirements associated with the material procurement. Bidders should carefully review all documentation, including the detailed line items in the accompanying Excel spreadsheet, to ensure full compliance with the procurement requirements and to understand the comprehensive scope of the potential contract.
