DRC250019 - Asphalt Repair & Striping Project - DRCP-25- 3391

The Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Corrections (ODRC) is soliciting bids for a comprehensive asphalt repair and striping project at the Toledo Correctional Institution (ToCI) located in Lucas County. The procurement is structured as an Invitation to Bid (ITB) for repairing and rehabilitating parking lots and internal roadways, which will involve extensive infrastructure maintenance including crack filling, surface sealing, milling, and asphalt replacement. Specific project requirements include a 2-inch mill of designated areas, surface preparation, new asphalt installation, grading, and re-striping of parking areas and fire lanes. Contractors must provide a detailed proposal demonstrating experience with similar services, necessary licensing, and compliance with institutional security protocols. The mandatory site visit is scheduled for March 27, 2025, at 10:00 AM, with all proposals due by April 8, 2025, and project completion required by May 30, 2025. Bidders must submit comprehensive documentation through Ohio Buys, including firm experience, licenses, delivery timelines, and a detailed warranty for materials and labor.

The solicitation does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged business enterprises. Contractors must submit background check information and adhere to the correctional facility's strict security requirements, which may limit potential bidders. While no specific budget range is provided in the documents, the project encompasses approximately 862 linear feet of roadways and 1,300 linear feet of parking lot surfaces requiring extensive repair. Payment terms are structured as Net 30, with bids to be submitted as a flat-rate for both materials and labor. The project will require careful phasing due to ToCI being a 24-hour operational facility, which may impact contractor scheduling and execution. Vendors must provide an itemized list of proposed materials and ensure all work meets governmental, environmental, and safety standards. The comprehensive nature of the project suggests a significant infrastructure investment aimed at addressing long-term facility maintenance needs.
