Local let maintenance contract, JIM wells CO, flexible base

The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Corpus Christi District is seeking bids for a local let maintenance contract in Jim Wells County, specifically targeting a 0.01-mile segment of US Highway 0281. The procurement involves flexible base maintenance work with a project completion timeline of 180 calendar days. This is a waived project, meaning that bidding proposals will only be issued to prequalified contractors upon request. The bid submission deadline is November 13, 2025, at 10:00 AM EST, with bids to be received and opened at the TxDOT Maintenance Contract Office in Corpus Christi. Interested contractors must base their proposals on information found in the Electronic State Business Daily (ESBD), Electronic Bidding System, and the project proposal, with these sources taking precedence over other information. For contract inquiries, potential bidders can contact Eric Martinez at (361) 661-7072 or (361) 808-2279. The contract requires a bid guaranty of $9,000.00 and will involve comprehensive maintenance work on the designated highway segment.

The contract has a Small Business Enterprise (SBE) goal of 0.0%, which suggests minimal restrictions on business size or type for bidding. The total estimated project cost is $432,000.00, providing potential contractors with insight into the project's financial scope. No specific incumbent vendors are mentioned in the available documentation. The procurement appears open to prequalified contractors who can meet the technical and logistical requirements of highway maintenance work. Bidders will need to demonstrate capability in flexible base maintenance and comply with all TxDOT specifications and requirements. Contractors should carefully review all official bidding documents, including any potential addenda that might be issued during the bidding process. The lack of a specific SBE percentage suggests that the contract is primarily focused on technical competence and ability to complete the maintenance work effectively and efficiently within the specified timeline.
