About this opportunity

Portage County, Wisconsin, is seeking bids to establish a call list and contracts with owner/operators of quad-axle trucks and road building equipment for county road projects and roadway maintenance. The procurement is a Request for Bid (RFB) that requires vendors to provide unit prices for various equipment types, including quad-axle trucks with rear tow bar capability, chip seal machines, graders, dozers, pavers, milling machines, diggers, and rollers. Bidders must demonstrate three years of experience operating trucks or road building equipment and provide three references from firms to which similar services were provided in the past five years. The bid submission deadline is February 28, 2019, at 2:00 PM, with a public opening at Portage County Purchasing in Stevens Point, WI. Potential bidders must submit any questions in writing by February 19, 2019. The contract will run for 12 months from the date of award, with possible extensions by mutual agreement. Award will be made to the lowest net unit price from responsive, responsible bidders meeting specifications, with the potential for multiple vendors to be selected.

The solicitation does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Pricing must be submitted as unit prices per hour with operator, inclusive of transportation, fuel, equipment, and operator costs, with no order minimums permitted. Awarded contractors must maintain a Certificate of Insurance with minimum coverage of one million dollars for liability, bodily injury, property damage, and automobile liability. The County is exempt from federal excise and Wisconsin sales taxes. Pricing must remain firm for the entire contract period, with no increases allowed, though prices may be lowered due to market conditions. Invoices must be itemized with time/date of service, vendor name, remit address, and prices per contract, and will be submitted to the Portage County Highway Department for payment within 30 days of receipt. While a specific budget range is not provided, the solicitation suggests a flexible procurement approach that can accommodate multiple vendors and equipment types for ongoing road maintenance and construction projects.
