On-Call Concrete Work-Oconee County

The South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) Procurement Office is soliciting bids for on-call drainage structure and concrete repair services in Oconee County through an Invitation for Bid (IFB). The procurement encompasses comprehensive roadway infrastructure maintenance, including replacing broken concrete sections of curb and gutter, sidewalks, and driveways; constructing new catch basins; and converting existing catch basins within the State Right-of-Way. The contract includes 125 line items across a five-year period, covering activities such as mobilization, pavement removal, concrete curb and gutter installation, sidewalk construction, ADA pedestrian ramps, drop inlets, catch basins, reinforced concrete pipes, and miscellaneous concrete repairs. Key deliverables require contractors to mobilize within 90 calendar days of work requests, complete each catch basin within 14 days, and respond to emergency requests within 7 days. The bid submission deadline is August 6, 2019, at 2:30 p.m., with questions due by July 26, 2019, at 12:00 p.m. Evaluation will be based on the lowest bid, determined by summing extended prices for each line item, with liquidated damages of $50 per day for project delays.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises are mentioned in the solicitation. Contractors must provide proof of comprehensive insurance coverage, including Commercial General Liability with $1,000,000 per occurrence limits, Auto Liability with $1,000,000 per accident limits, and Workers' Compensation insurance with statutory limits and $1,000,000 Employer's Liability coverage. The contract term runs from August 19, 2019, through August 18, 2024, with potential automatic one-year renewal options. Pricing remains fixed for the initial contract term, with potential Consumer Price Index-based adjustments upon renewal. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the extensive line item list and five-year contract duration suggest a substantial procurement opportunity. Contractors will be responsible for all associated costs, including materials, equipment, labor, traffic control, permits, licenses, insurance, and taxes. The contract does not identify a specific funding source and appears to be a standard infrastructure maintenance procurement for Oconee County.
