About this opportunity

The City of Bradenton, Florida, is soliciting bids for the FY26 Kingston Estates Water Main Improvements project, which involves constructing approximately 3,300 linear feet of 8-inch PVC water mains using open-cut methods in Manatee County. The procurement is an Invitation to Bid (IFB #26-018MK) seeking a licensed general contractor to install water infrastructure, including gate valves, fire hydrants, tapping sleeves, service connections, and meter boxes. Qualified bidders must have completed at least two projects involving a minimum of 3,000 linear feet of stormwater piping, with one project valued at $1,000,000 or more. The project requires comprehensive deliverables such as record drawings, quality control plans, and comprehensive testing and disinfection procedures. Key dates include a non-mandatory pre-proposal meeting on January 22, 2026, at 11:00 a.m., a question submission deadline of January 29, 2026, at 10:00 a.m., and a bid response deadline of February 12, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. All submissions must be made electronically through the OpenGov procurement portal.

The solicitation does not specify specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged business enterprises. Bidders are required to submit a 5% bid bond with their proposal, and the apparent low bidder must provide an original bond within five business days of notification. For contracts exceeding $200,000, performance and payment bonds totaling 100% of the contract amount are mandatory. The contract includes a maximum project duration of 180 calendar days from the Notice to Proceed, with liquidated damages of $500 per day for delays beyond the completion date. While no incumbent vendor is mentioned, the project includes abandoning existing water mains and coordinating with utility companies. The bid includes a 10% contingency amount and a $2,500 cash allowance for quality control testing. The City intends to award the contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with the total project budget likely falling within the range of $1,500,000 to $2,500,000 based on the project specifications and required infrastructure improvements.
