Demolition Svc Warren Co P. 4, 7, 19 & 24

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) Division of Purchases has issued Request for Bid (RFB) 605 2600000022 for demolition services in Warren County, specifically targeting four commercial parcels located on U.S. 31W Bypass in Bowling Green. The project requires a comprehensive demolition approach involving the removal of a one-story brick commercial building (approximately 1,900 square feet), two commercial signs, a metal sign with guard posts, and a personal electric metal light pole. Bidders must submit electronic proposals through the Kentucky Vendor Self Service system by August 13, 2025, at 1:30 PM Eastern Time, with a tentative award date of August 20, 2025. The contract mandates complete demolition, proper material disposal, site grading, and seeding of disturbed areas, with a strict 45-consecutive calendar day completion timeline after work order issuance. Evaluation will be conducted using a best value approach with 100% of points allocated to pricing, meaning the lowest bidder will receive maximum points. Contractors must maintain $1,000,000 in general liability insurance and provide a performance bond.

The project is federally funded through the Federal Highway Administration and is subject to Davis-Bacon Act wage determinations and Buy America requirements. While no specific Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) participation goal is established, contractors are encouraged to consider DBE subcontractors. The solicitation does not specify a precise award value or budget range, leaving financial details open for competitive bidding. Contractors must comply with environmental regulations for waste disposal, follow strict safety protocols, complete utility disconnections, and obtain necessary permits before commencing work. The project requires careful navigation of existing property boundaries, including interfaces with entities like Riverwood Partners LLC and Park Medical Plaza LLC. Additional technical requirements include precise traffic control, adherence to specific demolition and site restoration specifications, and coordination with local utilities such as Bowling Green Municipal Utilities (BGMU). No incumbent vendors are mentioned in the documentation, suggesting this is a new procurement initiative for the Warren County infrastructure improvement project.
