Broken Concrete Crushing (4 Sites)

The Iowa Department of Transportation (Iowa DOT) has issued a Request for Quote (RFQ Number 645-RFQ-1883-2025) for broken concrete crushing services across four DOT garage sites located in Fort Dodge, Grimes, Altoona, and Grinnell. The project involves crushing approximately 1,176.98 tons of concrete debris to 3/4" Class A specifications (Gradation No. 11) between July 1, 2025, and June 30, 2026. Contractors must provide all necessary equipment, labor, and materials to complete the crushing process, including removing rebar and excess dirt and fines from the crushed material. The solicitation requires bidders to submit sealed proposals by June 20, 2025, at 1:00 PM CDT, with site visits recommended and available by scheduling with Jerrod Okland with 24-hour advance notice. Evaluation criteria will consider cost, mandatory requirements, proposed staffing, time schedule, past work performance, and work capacity. Contractors must bid on all items within the groups to be considered, and the contract will be awarded to the most advantageous bidder.

The Iowa DOT has structured this procurement to allow potential contract extension to other Iowa state agencies, Regent institutions, and political subdivisions upon request. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned, the agency is tax-exempt and will require the successful contractor to maintain specified insurance coverage. The total estimated contract value is not precisely defined, but the project involves processing 1,176.98 tons of concrete across four sites, with individual site quantities ranging from 81.97 tons (Altoona) to 583.36 tons (Grinnell). Payment terms are established at 0% 0, Net 60, and District 1 Materials will conduct random verification gradation for acceptance. Any removed rebar may become the property of the contractor, and the estimated quantity should be verified by bidding contractors. The contract period runs from July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026, providing a full fiscal year for project completion.
