The Oregon Department of Transportation is requesting competitive quotes from Emerging Small Business (ESB) certified firms for removal and replacement of approximately 450 linear feet of chain-link security fencing at US Highway 101, Mile Post 243.2 in Coos County, with quotes due September 4, 2026 and substantial completion required by November 20, 2026.

This RFCQ is restricted to ESB-certified vendors as defined by the State of Oregon's Certification Office for Business Inclusion and Diversity (COBID), and successful bidders must perform at least 51 percent of labor using their own workforce. Scope includes removal and disposal of existing T-post fencing and installation of agency-supplied chain-link security fencing. Offerors must be licensed with the State Construction Contractors Board (CCB) prior to submission and must maintain a Public Works bond filed with the CCB before work commences.

All work is subject to prevailing wage requirements under ORS 279C.800 through ORS 279C.870. Offerors must demonstrate satisfactory performance records on similar projects completed within the last three years. Award will be made to the responsible offeror submitting the lowest responsive quote price. The agency will not withhold retainage from contract payments. Liquidated damages apply for failure to meet the substantial completion date.

Requests for clarification, changes, or approval of equivalents must be submitted no later than seven calendar days prior to closing. Quotes must be submitted electronically through the OregonBuys eProcurement system. No pre-quote conference or public opening will be held. Final completion is due November 30, 2026. Apparent successful offerors must submit certificates of insurance, completed W-9 forms, and other required documentation within seven calendar days of ODOT's intent-to-award notification.
