NW District Fuel Dispenser Project

The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) has issued an Invitation for Bid (IFB605CO18002449) for the NW District Fuel Dispenser Project, seeking a contractor to remove and replace fuel pumps at various MoDOT facilities in northwest Missouri. The project encompasses six base bid locations in Brookfield, Carrollton, Keytesville, Milan, Tarkio, and Unionville, with two additional alternate locations in Hamilton and Princeton. The scope requires furnishing and installing new cabinet-type fuel pumps that are Wayne, Gasboy, or equivalent models compatible with MoDOT's Fuel Master System, including specific technical requirements such as 1 hp motors, OPW automatic shutoff nozzles, and compatibility with unleaded fuel dispensing. Bids are due by June 8, 2018, at 3:00 PM CDT, with a required contract completion date of September 21, 2018. Interested vendors must be registered in the MissouriBUYS procurement system and can schedule site visits with the designated MoDOT inspector. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with evaluation focused on meeting all specified technical and operational requirements.

The solicitation encourages participation from Minority Business Enterprises (MBE) and Women Business Enterprises (WBE), with specific participation goals of 10% MBE and 5% WBE. Service-Disabled Veteran Enterprises (SDVE) are also encouraged to participate. Bidders must provide a 5% bid bond or equivalent financial guarantee, and the successful contractor will be required to submit a 100% performance and payment bond. The contract includes prevailing wage requirements according to Annual Wage Order #25 and mandates specific insurance coverages, including commercial general liability ($500,000 per person/$3,000,000 per occurrence), automobile liability, and workers' compensation. Liquidated damages of $200 per day will be assessed for late completion. The contractor must provide a one-year warranty on all materials and labor, and will be responsible for quality management oversight, with MoDOT conducting hold point inspections during demolition and installation phases. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the project involves multiple pump replacements across eight locations, suggesting a substantial infrastructure investment.
