About this opportunity

Dorchester County, South Carolina, is seeking qualified firms to provide Job Order Contracting (JOC) Services specifically for Paving Trade Projects through Request for Proposal No. 2026-29. The procurement is an indefinite quantity construction contract for performing ongoing individual projects at various county locations, focusing on repair, rehabilitation, replacement, site work, and minor new construction. Contractors must be approved by the South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) and provide their vendor number. The county intends to award multiple contracts and will evaluate proposals based on four key criteria: firm qualifications and safety (30%), cost proposal (30%), capacity and availability (20%), and references/past project performance (20%). Key dates include a non-mandatory pre-proposal virtual webinar on December 18, 2025, at 10:00 AM, a written question submission deadline of January 7, 2026, at 11:59 PM, and proposal submissions due January 15, 2026, at 2:00 PM via the OpenGov Procurement Portal or by mail/hand delivery. The base contract term is one year with four optional one-year renewal terms, and contractors must achieve a minimum 51% self-performance requirement calculated through labor hours.

The solicitation does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Contractors must maintain comprehensive insurance coverage, including general liability, automobile liability, and workers' compensation, with Dorchester County listed as an additional insured. The contract includes a 6.0% JOC Administrative Fee paid to The Gordian Group, and performance and payment bonds of 100% may be required for individual job orders. Contractors must provide key personnel, including a full-time contract representative, office manager, and 24/7 accessible superintendent. While specific budget ranges are not detailed, the contract allows for multiple awards and will be structured using adjustment factors applied to pre-priced tasks in a Construction Task Catalog. The county reserves the right to award to multiple contractors and will select offers providing the best overall value, not necessarily the lowest cost. Contractors must complete a comprehensive Subcontractor Data Form listing all subcontractors, their details, and applicable licenses or certifications.
