Flow Meter Installation Project

The City of Goldsboro, North Carolina is seeking bids for a Flow Meter Installation Project (Bid #FB 2025-003RB) through an Invitation to Bid (ITB) procurement method. The project involves installing Transit Time Flow Meters at multiple locations, including Seymour Johnson AFB, Fork Township areas, and two flow meters (16" and 20") at the City Water Treatment Plant. Sealed bids will be accepted until 2:00 PM on Tuesday, September 9, 2025, with bidders required to submit two separate sealed envelopes: one containing bid security documentation and contractor's license, and another with the proposal. Bidders must provide a certified check or bid bond equal to 5% of the total proposal amount as bid security. The project documentation can be downloaded from the City of Goldsboro website (www.goldsboronc.gov) under the Bid Listings link or examined in the City Engineer's office. Contractors must comply with legislative acts related to contractor licensing, and proposals can be delivered by parcel service, in person to the City Hall Addition, or by U.S. Mail, with bidders responsible for ensuring timely delivery before the bid deadline.

The solicitation does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The procurement covers jurisdictions including Warren County and is managed by the Engineering Department, with Project Manager Jonathan Perry contactable at jperry@goldsboronc.gov or 919-580-4317. While specific budget ranges are not detailed in the provided documentation, the requirement for a 5% bid security suggests the project has a substantial financial scope. The city reserves the right to reject any or all bids and will hold proposals for 60 days from the opening date. Potential bidders should note that they will need appropriate licensing and technical capabilities to install specialized transit time flow meters in municipal and military infrastructure settings. Interested contractors should carefully review the full bid documents to understand the complete technical specifications and installation requirements for the flow meter project.
