Quail Ridge Drainage

St. Tammany Parish Government has issued Quote #25-54-1 for the Quail Ridge Drainage project, a comprehensive drainage infrastructure improvement initiative located in Slidell, Louisiana. The project encompasses specific drainage enhancements at three locations: Nighthawk Dr, Lake Vermillion Ct, and Blue Crane No. 1 Dr, involving the removal and replacement of storm drain pipes, concrete driveways, catch basins, sidewalks, curbing, and associated landscape restoration. Contractors must be licensed in Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction and will be evaluated based on being the lowest responsive bidder. The quote is due on October 23, 2025, at 2:00 PM, with a mandatory project completion timeline of 45 calendar days from the Notice to Proceed. Evaluation criteria include comprehensive insurance coverage requirements, including commercial general liability, automobile liability, and workers' compensation insurance. Contractors must submit detailed documentation, including legal employee status affidavits and corporate resolutions authorizing bid submission. The parish has reserved the right to adjust project quantities up to 25% and modify the project scope as needed.

The procurement does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Contractors must provide comprehensive documentation demonstrating compliance with local and state regulations, and must possess appropriate licensing and insurance credentials. While no incumbent vendors are mentioned, the project appears to be funded through parish infrastructure or capital improvement budgets. The procurement allows for unit pricing across various construction elements, including mobilization, temporary signs and barricades, storm drain pipe installation, concrete driveway replacement, and sodding. Though a specific budget range is not explicitly stated, the project's scope suggests a substantial infrastructure investment targeting critical drainage improvements in the Slidell area. The parish's flexibility in potential quantity adjustments indicates potential scalability of the project's financial parameters.
