On-call sidewalk repair clarendon CTY

The South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) has issued a solicitation for on-call sidewalk repair services in Clarendon County, specifically targeting six municipalities: Turbeville, Summerton, Paxville, New Zion, Manning, and Alcolu. This procurement is classified as an exempt procurement seeking a contractor to perform comprehensive sidewalk infrastructure maintenance, including removal, disposal, and replacement of existing sidewalks, curbs, gutters, and pedestrian ramps in accordance with SCDOT Standard Specifications Section 720. The contract will commence on December 3, 2019, and expire December 2, 2022, with an initial one-year term that automatically renews annually unless the State provides thirty days' notice of non-renewal. Work will be issued through individual work orders with a minimum invoice value of $10,000, and contractors must commence work within thirty calendar days of notification. The solicitation requires unit pricing for specific deliverables, including 4-inch and 6-inch concrete sidewalks, concrete curb and gutter, ADA pedestrian ramps, and detectable warning surfaces, with anticipated annual quantities specified for each item. Contractors must submit a job mix design and traffic control plan for approval, use CLASS 2500 concrete from SCDOT-approved suppliers, and be responsible for demolition, disposal, traffic control, tree root removal, and site restoration.

The solicitation does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Contractors will be selected as the lowest responsible and responsive bidder based on cumulative extended prices, with the State adding applicable sales or use tax when evaluating offers from non-governmental entities. The contract is an on-call arrangement with no guaranteed minimum work volume, meaning actual project opportunities will depend on county infrastructure needs. While no incumbent vendor is mentioned, the contract provides flexibility for ongoing sidewalk maintenance across multiple Clarendon County municipalities. The bidding schedule outlines specific unit pricing for five pay items across three years, with anticipated annual quantities including 1,200 square yards of 4-inch concrete sidewalk, 200 square yards of 6-inch concrete sidewalk/drives, 200 linear feet of concrete curb and gutter, two ADA pedestrian ramps, and 20 square feet of detectable warning surfaces. Contractors must demonstrate technical capabilities in concrete construction, traffic management, and infrastructure restoration to be considered for award.
