CIP-2493 Paukie Island Road Waterline Project

Beaufort County is soliciting proposals for the CIP-2493 Paukie Island Road Waterline Project, a critical infrastructure relocation initiative. The primary objective is to relocate an existing eight-inch PVC waterline along Paukie Island Road to facilitate the installation of a new box culvert that will replace the current drainage pipe maintained by the county. The project requires a comprehensive approach to waterline relocation, including precise engineering, materials procurement, and installation services. Interested contractors must carefully review the detailed Request for Proposal (RFP) document (1-100 2026-RFP-001) and submit comprehensive responses by August 25, 2025. The solicitation includes a separate document addressing responses to potential bidder questions, which contractors should thoroughly examine to understand the full scope of the project. Potential bidders are expected to demonstrate technical expertise in municipal infrastructure relocation, water system engineering, and culvert replacement techniques.

The procurement appears to have standard compliance requirements, including an Illegal Immigration Compliance Affidavit that must be completed by all bidders. While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed in the provided documentation, contractors should be prepared to meet standard South Carolina state and Beaufort County procurement regulations. The project is located within Beaufort County (FIPS Code 45013) and will likely require local licensing and compliance with municipal infrastructure standards. No specific budget range or project value was explicitly stated in the available documents, suggesting that pricing will be determined through the competitive bidding process. Prospective contractors should be prepared to provide comprehensive cost proposals that demonstrate both technical capability and competitive pricing for the waterline relocation and culvert replacement project.
