Pavement Line Marking

The City of Wayne, located in Wayne County, Michigan, is seeking qualified firms to provide comprehensive pavement line marking services for city streets and parking lots during the 2025-26 contract year, with potential extensions through 2031. The procurement encompasses applying paint lane and special markings across approximately 10,000 linear feet of double yellow lines on major streets, 600 linear feet of double white lines, 6,000 linear feet of single white bike lane lines, and 150 pedestrian crosswalks, as well as line painting for 18 city-owned parking lots. Bidders must demonstrate at least two years of experience in municipal, county, or state government pavement line marking and provide three professional references. A mandatory pre-bid meeting is scheduled for August 6, 2025, at 11:00 AM, with sealed bids due by August 13, 2025, at 11:00 AM at Wayne City Hall. Evaluation criteria include compliance with Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) specifications, insurance requirements, and the ability to meet detailed line marking specifications for various street and parking lot locations. Bidders must submit a 10% bid bond and provide comprehensive insurance coverage, including public liability, property damage, and workers' compensation.

The solicitation does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged business enterprises. The contract allows for potential multi-year extensions, suggesting flexibility for vendors with proven performance. While no incumbent vendors are directly identified, the bid documents suggest the city has existing infrastructure and street networks that require ongoing maintenance and marking services. Payment will be processed through ACH direct deposit, and the city reserves the right to accept or reject any bid and terminate the contract with five days' notice. Although a specific budget range is not provided, the extensive scope of work covering multiple street segments and parking lots implies a substantial contract value. The comprehensive nature of the marking requirements, including detailed specifications for line colors, types, and locations, indicates the city's commitment to precise and professional pavement marking services that enhance traffic safety and municipal infrastructure management.
