P26-05 Concrete & Asphalt Services

Forsyth County Schools (located in Fayette County, Georgia) has issued RFP P26-05, a competitive procurement for Concrete and Asphalt Services to establish a pool of qualified contractors to provide both current and future as-needed maintenance, repair, and construction services at multiple school facilities. The solicitation encompasses comprehensive asphalt services including patch and repair, mill and overlay, full depth reclamation, and sealcoating with specific current projects identified at New Hope Elementary School, Brookwood Elementary School, and Shiloh Point Elementary School/Piney Grove Middle School, as well as concrete services including flatwork, curb and gutter installation, sidewalk construction, and repair work. Qualified contractors must submit detailed pricing sheets utilizing unit costs and labor rates for both service categories, provide evidence of relevant experience and past performance, maintain commercial general liability insurance of $1,000,000 and umbrella/excess liability of $2,000,000, and complete all required compliance documentation including a contractor affidavit confirming E-Verify participation and registration with the Safety-Check Contractor Identification System. The RFP closing date is April 28, 2026, at 3:00 PM with submissions required through the FCS Euna/Bonfire Purchasing Portal; awarded contracts will be valid for one year from the date of award with options to renew for up to four additional one-year periods if mutually agreeable. Award will not be based solely on cost; the evaluation committee will consider qualifications, relevant experience, past performance, references, methodologies, and responsiveness to all requirements and specifications outlined in the solicitation documents.

The solicitation contains no stated set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or minority-owned businesses, though all contractors must comply with Georgia employment eligibility verification requirements under O.C.G.A. 13-10-91 and maintain E-Verify participation throughout the contract term. All pricing must remain firm for twelve months from the award date, with the exception of asphalt-related materials, which Forsyth County Schools acknowledges as volatile commodities subject to price escalation review upon request; contractors are required to provide current cost per ton delivered and applicable markup information to facilitate evaluation of potential future price increases. No specific budget range or overall award value is stated in the solicitation documents; instead, payment will be made per completed job upon inspection and sign-off by FCS personnel, with invoices itemized to show labor, parts, and all contracted line items. Work must be scheduled during normal business hours of Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Eastern Time unless otherwise authorized, with a local company representative required to be available at the job site within forty-eight hours of notification and all materials and workmanship warranted for one year from substantial completion. All contractors must acknowledge their understanding and compliance capability with the Scope of Work requirements, which include adherence to specified technical requirements for asphalt placement temperature and moisture conditions, concrete strength minimums of 3,000 to 4,000 PSI depending on application, and industry-standard construction practices with proper drainage and grading to eliminate water ponding.
