Bittersweet Park Pipeline Replacement

The City of Greeley, located in Weld County, Colorado, is seeking a contractor for the Bittersweet Park Pipeline Replacement Project (Bid #F25-09-059), a comprehensive stormwater infrastructure improvement initiative. The procurement is a unit price contract focusing on removing and replacing stormwater pipes in the southwestern section of Bittersweet Park, specifically targeting the western parking lot along 38th Avenue, the intersection of 38th Avenue and 14th Street Road, and an adjacent green space. Key deliverables include removing corroded corrugated metal pipes, concrete and asphalt, and installing reinforced concrete pipes and new storm structures such as inlets and outlets. The project requires contractors to perform work across 0.285 acres, with a 30-calendar day completion timeline. Critical procurement dates include a pre-bid conference on September 10, 2025, at 11:30 a.m. via Microsoft Teams, bid submission deadline on October 2, 2025, before 12:00 p.m. MST, with a virtual bid opening meeting at 1:30 PM the same day. Evaluation criteria will be weighted as follows: price (75 points), schedule (15 points), and similar experience (10 points).

There are no specific disadvantaged business enterprise (DBE) goals established for this project. Bidders must be prepared to submit comprehensive documentation, including a bid schedule, performance and payment bonds, and proof of prime contractor participation, requiring at least 51% of work to be performed by the contractor's own organization. The contractor will be responsible for utility coordination, erosion control, traffic management, and providing a two-year warranty on all completed work. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the project involves substantial civil engineering work, including installing 110 linear feet of 30-inch reinforced concrete pipe, 128 linear feet of 18-inch reinforced concrete pipe, one 30-inch flared-end section, a CDOT Type 13 valley grate inlet, and a 4-foot flat top manhole.
