About this opportunity

Portage County, Wisconsin is soliciting bids to establish a call list and contracts with owner/operators of quad-axle trucks and road building equipment for county road projects and roadway maintenance. The procurement seeks various equipment types including chip seal machines, graders, dozers, pavers, milling machines, diggers, and rollers, with bids required to include hourly unit prices per operator. Bidders must submit an original and one copy of required materials, including a Signature and Authority Affidavit Form, References Sheet, and Bid Offer Form, by 2:00 PM on March 12, 2020, to the Portage County Purchasing Department in Stevens Point. Qualification requirements include demonstrating three years of business experience operating trucks or road building equipment and providing three references from similar work performed within the past five years. Evaluation criteria will focus on the lowest net unit price per item from responsive and responsible bidders meeting specifications, with potential for multiple vendors to be awarded based on timeliness and availability. Written questions were due by February 27, 2020, and can be directed to Chris Schultz, Procurement Director, at (715) 346-1393 or schultzc@co.portage.wi.us.

The contract does not appear to have specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises. Bidders must carry a minimum of $1 million in commercial liability and motor vehicle insurance, with Portage County listed as an additional insured. The contract term will extend from the date of award through the following year's bidding process (12 months), with potential extensions requiring mutual agreement between the vendor and County. Pricing must remain firm for the entire contract period, with no increases permitted, though vendors may lower prices due to market conditions. While specific budget ranges are not detailed, the solicitation requires bidders to include all transportation, fuel, equipment, and operator costs in their pricing. The County reserves the right to accept or reject any bids, award partial bids, or waive technicalities as deemed in the County's best interest. All submitted bids must remain open for a minimum of 60 days from the submission date.
