Bridge deck repair greenwood county

The South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) is seeking bids for a bridge deck repair project located in Greenwood County on SC Highway 10 crossing CSX Railroad. The solicitation is an Invitation for Bid (IFB) for comprehensive bridge deck rehabilitation services, specifically involving partial depth concrete patching to extend the bridge's structural life and improve the riding surface. The project scope includes precise concrete removal to sound material with squared edges, high-pressure water and air blasting for surface preparation, potential corrosion inhibitor application or reinforcing steel replacement, moisture-insensitive bonding agent application, and placement of high-strength concrete mix with a minimum compressive strength of 4 ksi and a 6-hour traffic loading cure time. Contract quantities include 156 square yards of partial depth concrete bridge deck patching, 10 days of traffic control for lane closures, and one mobilization charge. Key deadlines include January 31, 2024, at 12:00 PM for question submissions, February 7, 2024, at 2:30 PM for bid submissions, and an anticipated award notification on February 14, 2024, with a contract period from February 15, 2024, through June 31, 2024.

The solicitation is exempt from standard procurement procedures and does not include specific set-aside requirements. Bidders must be registered South Carolina vendors and must provide several mandatory certifications, including certificates of independent price determination, debarment certification, drug-free workplace certification, and ethics compliance certification. Insurance requirements include commercial general liability insurance of $1 million per occurrence, auto liability insurance of $1 million per accident, and workers' compensation insurance with statutory limits. A labor and material payment bond is required if the contract exceeds $50,000. The contractor will be responsible for all labor, materials, equipment, permits, and traffic control compliance with SCDOT and MUTCD standards. Bidding can be completed online through the South Carolina procurement system or via paper submission, though online bidding is preferred. Only one signed offer per legal entity is permitted, and joint bids are not allowed. While no specific contract value or budget range is explicitly stated in the documents, the scope and requirements suggest a moderate-sized infrastructure maintenance project focused on preserving critical transportation infrastructure in Greenwood County.
