The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC), Division of Purchases, on behalf of the Division of Right of Way and Utilities, issued this Request for Bid (RFB 21-561) for demolition services in Clay County, Kentucky. The procurement seeks a one-time contract for complete demolition of the D&J Pawn building, a 3,427 square-foot block structure located at 2727 South Highway 421 in Manchester, Kentucky (Parcel 113), as part of the US 421/KY 80 Widening initiative. The scope of work includes removal and proper disposal of the main building, associated structures such as fences, septic tanks, driveways, paved areas, and miscellaneous encumbrances within the right-of-way and easement areas, with a specific addendum requirement to remove four inches of concrete from the entire roof by sawcutting at the centerline of the existing steel beam. The contractor must comply with Kentucky 811 underground facility damage prevention requirements, ensure proper disposal of all debris at permitted facilities, handle any hazardous materials appropriately with refrigerant evacuation documentation, and perform seeding and grassing of disturbed areas; all work must conform to applicable federal, state, and local codes and regulations. Evaluation is based solely on price (100 points), with the lowest responsive bid receiving the maximum points. The original bid closing date was April 14, 2021, at 1:30 p.m. Eastern Time, but the solicitation was reissued as a rebid with a new deadline of April 20, 2021, at 1:30 p.m. Eastern Time, with a tentative award date of April 24, 2021. A non-mandatory pre-bid meeting was held on April 7, 2021, from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m., and all bids must be submitted electronically through the Kentucky Vendor Self Service e-Procurement system.

Kentucky resident bidder preferences apply to this procurement, and qualified bidder preferences are also available. All bidders must submit a completed Annual Affidavit establishing compliance with Kentucky Revised Statutes requirements, including campaign finance laws, current registration with the Kentucky Department of Revenue, non-delinquency on all state taxes and fees, and non-participation in trade boycotts; additionally, for non-bid contracts, contractors must certify compliance with gubernatorial contribution limits and candidate contribution restrictions. A performance bond or irrevocable letter of credit is required in the amount of the contract price or $10,000, whichever is greater, with letters of credit limited to a maximum of $20,000.

No current incumbent vendor information is provided in the solicitation documents. Work cannot commence until the District Property Management Agent notifies the contractor that all utilities have been disconnected, and after 60 consecutive calendar days from receipt of the work order, penalties of $200 per day will be assessed for each parcel not cleared; after 67 calendar days, the Cabinet may cancel the contract entirely.
