On-call services to raise manhole frame and covers town wide

The Town of Trumbull Water Pollution Control Authority is requesting proposals for on-call services to raise manhole frames and covers town-wide under BID 6577, with proposals due June 18, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. and technical questions due by June 12, 2026.

Bidders must provide separate unit pricing for raising manholes on State Roads (estimated 20 adjustments) and Town-owned roads (estimated 40 adjustments), with a minimum of 8 adjustments assumed per mobilization. The Town will supply new manhole frames and covers, provide traffic control, mark locations, and obtain encroachment permits for State Road work. Contractors must submit evidence of experience raising manhole frames in at least four municipalities during the past five years with detailed references, and provide certificates of insurance naming the Town as additional insured with minimum coverage of $1,000,000 per person / $1,000,000 per occurrence for general liability and $1,000,000 for property damage. All work must comply with Federal, State, and Local regulations including OSHA standards, and contractors must utilize circular bore drills.

The contract term runs from July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2028, with an option for one additional one-year renewal if both parties mutually agree on pricing with 30 days' written notice. Pricing shall remain firm and fixed for two years from the proposal opening date. The Town reserves the right to award contracts to a minimum of two qualified contractors and may cancel at any time. Award will be determined by the sum total of weighted bids. All quantities in the bid form are for illustration purposes only, with final quantities determined by actual work completed. Proposals must be submitted in sealed envelopes to Richard Kotchko, Interim Purchasing Agent, at Town Hall.
