About this opportunity
The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is soliciting bids for the 2025-804 Gitchi-Gami State Trail Culvert Replacements project, located in Lake and Cook Counties. The procurement seeks a contractor to replace seven existing culverts and install one new culvert along the Gitchi-Gami State Trail from Gooseberry to Lutsen. The project requires comprehensive services including all labor, equipment, materials, tools, transportation, and incidentals necessary for culvert replacement. Culverts range in diameter from 16 to 20 inches and are constructed of various materials such as Corrugated Polyethylene (CP), Corrugated Steel (CS), and Reinforced Concrete (RC). The solicitation was posted on April 21, 2025, with electronic bid submissions required through the Swift Portal by May 1, 2025, at 2:00 PM, with all project work to be completed by June 30, 2025. Evaluation criteria include compliance with specifications, with the contract to be awarded to the lowest responsible vendor meeting all requirements. Contractors must submit unit prices inclusive of all associated costs, and must comply with all specified terms and conditions.
The solicitation includes provisions for diversity and inclusion, with opportunities for businesses owned by minorities, women, veterans, and individuals with disabilities. A First-Tier Subcontractors List is required, which must identify subcontractors and their potential classifications as Targeted Group (TG), Economically Disadvantaged (ED), or Veteran-Owned (VO) businesses. Bids over $50,000 require a solicitation security bond of 5%, and contractors must comply with Minnesota prevailing wage statutes and resident vendor regulations. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the culvert replacement project suggests a significant infrastructure investment. Contractors needing assistance with registration or submission can contact the Contractor Assistance Help Desk at 651-201-8100, Option 1. The DNR reserves the right to award the contract to a single or multiple respondents, with the primary goal of selecting the most advantageous bid that meets all specified requirements.
