North Carolina Department of Transportation

The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) is seeking sealed proposals for the construction of the Alamance County Sub Shop located at 333 Prison Camp Road in Graham, NC. This procurement is for a single prime contract involving the furnishing of labor, materials, and equipment to complete the construction project, identified as SCO #23-26684-01A. A mandatory pre-bid meeting is scheduled for December 18, 2025, at 2:00 pm at the NCDOT Alamance County Maintenance Yard, where potential bidders can address project-specific questions and review bidding procedures. Sealed bids must be submitted by 2:00 pm on January 8, 2026, to the NCDOT Highway Division 7 office in Greensboro, NC, where they will be publicly opened and read. Bidders must provide a cash deposit or certified check of at least 5% of the proposal amount, or alternatively, submit a 5% bid bond from a North Carolina-licensed surety company.

The procurement includes specific requirements for minority business participation, with mandatory affidavits that must be completed to avoid bid rejection. General contractors must hold the appropriate license classification under North Carolina General Statutes Chapter 87, Article 1. A performance bond and payment bond will be required for 100% of the contract price, with payments made at 95% of monthly estimates and final payment upon project completion and acceptance. Complete project documentation, including plans and specifications, will be available for inspection at WHN Architects, PA, and various construction network plan rooms, including minority-focused resources like the Hispanic Contractors Association of the Carolinas. The owner reserves the right to reject any or all bids and waive informalities, and no bid may be withdrawn for 30 days after the closing time. While specific budget details are not explicitly stated, the requirement for bid and performance bonds suggests a substantial project investment for the Alamance County Sub Shop construction.
