ITB-48400-RWPROPMGMT000549, Putnam/Greene PI 0006253

The Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) is soliciting bids for a Right of Way Property Management Services project located in Greene County, specifically on Lake Oconee Parkway in Greensboro. The invitation to bid (ITB-48400-RWPROPMGMT000549) seeks a pre-qualified contractor to perform comprehensive demolition and removal services, which include dismantling four structures: an abandoned wood frame general store (657 sq ft), a store addition (912 sq ft), an abandoned semi-trailer, and an abandoned box truck cargo box. The project also requires removal of an estimated 500-gallon underground storage tank (UST), 18 vehicle tires, 4 tractor tires, interior debris, and associated site improvements. Bidders must hold current GDOT prequalification in specific Right of Way Property Management service classes, particularly E-3 (Demolition) and E-4 (UST Removal). The bid is due on September 24, 2025, at 2:00 PM EST, with an anticipated contract term of 30 days from the Notice to Proceed. GDOT will select the lowest, responsive, and responsible bidder based on a comprehensive analysis of submitted bid prices.

The procurement includes a 15% Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) participation goal, which provides opportunities for small, minority-owned, and women-owned businesses. Prospective bidders must comply with the Georgia Security and Immigration Compliance Act and provide multiple compliance documents, including a drug-free workplace certification. Contractors are required to submit performance and payment bonds for 100% of the total bid price and maintain comprehensive insurance coverage, including workers' compensation, commercial general liability, and automobile liability. A critical restriction of communication is in effect, prohibiting bidders from communicating with GDOT staff, including the Commissioner and Board Members, from the advertisement date until a successful respondent is selected. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the project is funded through GDOT's Right of Way division, and the total project scope suggests a moderate-scale demolition and site clearance effort. Interested firms must already be pre-qualified with GDOT, and those not currently listed on the prequalification roster will not have their bids considered.
