Parking Lot Maintenance

The University of Wisconsin Oshkosh is seeking bids for comprehensive asphalt repair and maintenance services across four campus parking lots (Lots A, B, C, and D) through a Request for Bid (RFB) numbered SP-24-307. The procurement encompasses an extensive range of services including saw cutting, asphalt patching, overlay, excavation, sub-base installation, milling, pulverizing, binder course application, shoulder work, fine grading, specialized asphalt mixes, line striping, crack filling, infrared thermal bond patching, and seeding. Bidders must provide unit pricing for 36 itemized line items covering labor and materials, and submit an estimated parking lot assessment for all university lots. The bid is due on December 4, 2023, at 2:00 P.M. CDT, with submissions accepted via email to fm-bids@uwosh.edu. Site visits are encouraged between November 3-15, 2023, during business hours, and written questions must be submitted by November 15, 2023. Evaluation will be based on the lowest responsible bidder determined by the grand total of all lots, with bidders required to demonstrate five years of relevant experience and provide three comparable client references.

The contract does not specify set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Successful bidders must maintain specific insurance coverage, including $1,000,000 in commercial general liability, automobile liability, and contractor's pollution liability with a one-year extended reporting period. The initial contract term will extend three years from the award date, with automatic renewal for two additional one-year terms unless either party provides 90 days written notice of non-renewal. Pricing must remain firm for three years, with limited price increase requests subject to documented cost increases and requiring 30 days advance notice. While no specific budget range is provided, the comprehensive scope of work suggests a substantial contract value covering multiple parking lots and an extensive range of maintenance services. The University expects to issue award notifications in December 2023, with the contract commencing in January 2024, and all work must comply with Wisconsin Department of Transportation specifications, environmental regulations, and OSHA safety standards.
