KC District Marshall Maintenance Complex Pole Barn Project

The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) is seeking a contractor to construct a seven-bay pole barn building at the KC District Marshall Maintenance Complex located in Marshall, Missouri. The project requires building a structure measuring 120'-0" wide by 50'-0" deep with a 16'-4" eave height on a MoDOT-prepared site. Specific deliverables include providing a 6" compacted crushed rock base inside and 10' outside the building perimeter, electrical work, gutters, downspouts, liner panels, metal siding/roof, and incidental site work. Bid submissions are due on April 26, 2023, at 2:00 PM CDT, with bids able to be submitted electronically through MissouriBUYS or via hard copy delivery. Written questions are due by April 10, 2023, at 3:00 PM, with any addenda to be posted by April 12, 2023. The project has a specified completion date of December 11, 2023, with the contract to be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Evaluation criteria will include compliance with project specifications, pricing, and overall bid responsiveness.

The solicitation encourages Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) and Women Business Enterprise (WBE) participation, with specific goals of 10% MBE and 5% WBE involvement. Service-Disabled Veteran (SDV) preferences may also apply to the bidding process. Bidders are required to provide a bid bond or security equal to 5% of the bid amount, with the successful contractor needing to provide a 100% performance and payment bond. The contractor must comply with prevailing wage requirements under Missouri Annual Wage Order #29 for Saline County and maintain specific insurance coverages, including general liability ($500,000/$4,000,000), automobile liability ($500,000/$4,000,000), and workers' compensation coverage. Liquidated damages of $500 per day will be assessed for late completion. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the project involves constructing a substantial maintenance facility pole barn, suggesting a significant investment by MoDOT. Alternative construction methods such as pre-engineered metal buildings or tilt-up concrete may be considered but will only be approved after contract award.
