About this opportunity
Atlantic County, New Jersey is soliciting bids for the Fairmount Paving project under BID 26-61, with bids due November 17, 2026. The solicitation includes a Value Engineering Change Proposal (VECP) process that lets the contractor propose innovations and share in resulting savings.

The Department will consider only proposals that reduce its costs without impairing essential functions, which the source lists as safety, service life, economy of operation, ease of maintenance, environmental compliance, and desired appearance, with the Department holding sole judgment on impairment. It will not consider VECPs that change the project's original design criteria, merely eliminate work, rest on an unknown factor, fail to show cost savings, or extend contract time.
