MoDOT Statewide Spring Aggregate Southeast District Rebid

The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) and the Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission (MHTC) are soliciting bids for Spring Aggregate Material through Invitation for Bid (IFB) number IFB605CO20001423, specifically targeting the Southeast District. The procurement seeks qualified vendors to provide and deliver chip rock (limestone only) and pug rock (limestone only) to various maintenance facilities across multiple counties including Howell, Ozark, Douglas, Oregon, Wright, Texas, Shannon, and Mississippi counties. The aggregate materials must conform to the 2019 Missouri Standard Specifications for Highway Construction, with specific gradation requirements and moisture content restrictions. Quantities range from 600 to 10,100 tons per location, with a total delivery completion date of May 31, 2020. Vendors can bid on either delivery to specified locations or plant pickup options, but not both for the Southeast District. The bid opening is scheduled for January 7, 2020 at 2:00 PM CST, with a minimum delivery requirement of 500 tons per day during normal business hours.

The IFB encourages participation from Minority Business Enterprises (MBE) with a 10% target and Women Business Enterprises (WBE) with a 5% target, though these are not strict set-aside requirements. Bidders must submit a 5% bid bond with their proposal, and successful vendors will be required to provide a 100% performance and payment bond. MoDOT reserves the right to increase or decrease quantities by up to 40% prior to award, and liquidated damages of $250 per day per item may be assessed for late deliveries. Payment terms are Net 30 Days, and vendors may be paid using the state purchasing card. While no specific incumbent vendors are mentioned, the solicitation indicates that all materials must be inspected at the plant before pickup or delivery. Though no explicit budget range is provided, the comprehensive nature of the bid across multiple counties suggests a significant procurement value, with individual line items ranging from 600 to 10,100 tons of aggregate materials.
