The City does not guarantee minimum work volume, expenditure, or number of service calls; this is a task-order vehicle with potential for one or more qualified awardees.

No estimated contract value is stated. Connecticut State Sales and Use Tax and associated Federal taxes are excluded from bid pricing. Successful awardees must execute the award document, provide a certificate of insurance meeting contract requirements, and furnish performance and payment bonds prior to contract signing within ten working days of notice of award. Contracts valued below $25,000 may be executed directly via purchase order at the City's discretion.

Sealed bids and all required forms and documents must be submitted through the City of Norwich Procurement Portal only; submissions by mail, in person, or email will not be accepted. The vendor question-and-answer period closed on September 23, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. EDT. The City reserves the right to reject any or all bids in whole or in part, or to award to other than the low bidder if deemed in the City's best interest.
