City Entryway Signs

The City of Americus, located in Georgia, is soliciting sealed bids for a comprehensive city entryway signs project covering four distinct locations, including sites along Highway 19, Highway 280, Highway 27, and South Lee Street. The procurement seeks a contractor to fabricate, remove existing signage, and install new one-sided and two-sided entrance signs measuring 12'W x 7'H x 2'D, complete with LED lighting and site-specific landscaping. Contractors must submit detailed sign renderings with their bids and demonstrate compliance with state and federal regulations, including OSHA standards. The bid process includes a pre-bid meeting scheduled for June 4, 2025, at 10:00 a.m., with a deadline for questions set for June 11, 2025, at 12:00 p.m. Sealed bids will be accepted until 10:00 a.m. on June 18, 2025, with a public bid opening at 11:00 a.m. the same day. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsible and responsive qualified bidder who meets all specified requirements. Evaluation criteria will focus on compliance, qualifications, and overall bid responsiveness.

The solicitation does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Contractors must provide proof of a valid business license and demonstrate adequate insurance coverage before contract award. The bid specifications include a comprehensive five-year full replacement warranty covering potential defects in craftsmanship. While no specific budget range is detailed in the provided documents, the project involves multiple sign installations with associated landscaping and lighting, suggesting a moderate-scale municipal infrastructure investment. Payment terms indicate potential delays of up to 60 days after invoice receipt, and the City of Americus reserves the right to reject any quotes that do not meet their comprehensive requirements. Interested contractors must contact George Allen, Public Works Director, at gallen@americusga.gov or 229-924-4411 for additional information or clarification about the bid specifications.
