Pavement Markings CD

The City of Pittsburgh's Office of Management and Budget is soliciting bids on behalf of the Department of Mobility and Infrastructure for Pavement Markings CD, a comprehensive roadway marking services contract. Invitation for Bid #2022-IFB-081 seeks contractors to provide installation of various pavement markings including yellow, white, thermoplastic, epoxy, and waterborne markings, along with roadway symbols, arrows, and custom markings. The contract period runs from April 15, 2022, through March 31, 2023, with options for two additional one-year renewals. Key bid deadlines include April 4, 2022, for submitting questions and April 8, 2022, at 3:00 pm for final bid responses. Bidders must provide unit costs for materials with installation, additional materials, labor, and shipping across five distinct pricing categories, with the option to no-bid specific line items. The procurement requires compliance with Davis-Bacon wage requirements, and bidders must submit detailed pricing proposals covering various marking specifications and installation services.

The solicitation strongly emphasizes participation from minority-owned, women-owned, and veteran-owned businesses, with specific participation goals of 18% minority and 7% women business enterprise involvement. Contractors must provide proof of insurance, maintain workers' compensation coverage, and comply with federal funding conditions, as the project appears to involve Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding. Bidders are required to adhere to equal opportunity guidelines and provide comprehensive documentation demonstrating business qualifications. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the detailed pricing schedule suggests a substantial municipal infrastructure investment. The contract covers multiple jurisdictions within Allegheny County, with wage determinations providing comprehensive compensation guidelines for various construction trade classifications. Successful bidders will need to demonstrate technical capability in roadway marking installation, compliance with federal wage standards, and commitment to inclusive business practices.
