Regional Concrete Repairs and Installation

The Commonwealth of Kentucky's Department of Corrections is seeking multiple contractors for a regional concrete repairs and installation contract covering six distinct regions of the state, including facilities such as Kentucky State Penitentiary, Western Kentucky Correctional Complex, Green River Correctional Complex, and Kentucky Correctional Institute for Women. The solicitation (RFB 758 2500000761) requires contractors to provide comprehensive concrete work services, including installation and repair of sidewalks, driveways, patios, floors, warehouse slabs, foundations, walkways, curbs, and parking lots across various correctional facilities. Bidders must demonstrate a minimum of five years of experience in the United States and have the capability to respond to delivery orders within 30 days. The procurement will utilize a best value ranking approach, with multiple contracts to be awarded per region on a quote-based system. Key dates include a bid submission deadline of July 14, 2025, at 1:30 PM ET, with vendor questions accepted until July 3, 2025, at 10:00 AM ET. Vendors must be registered in the Commonwealth eProcurement System and submit electronic bids, with an initial contract period of one year and potential extensions for four additional one-year periods.

The contract opportunity includes specific requirements for bidder qualifications, including mandatory submission of affidavits demonstrating compliance with state business regulations, campaign finance laws, and insurance requirements. Vendors must provide a Certificate of Insurance with $1,000,000 per occurrence Commercial General Liability coverage and meet additional insurance stipulations. While no specific set-aside designations are explicitly mentioned, the solicitation includes provisions for resident and qualified bidder status, which may provide advantages to certain Kentucky-based businesses. The documentation suggests the potential for multiple awards, with no specific total contract value disclosed. Bidders will be required to enter a nominal $0.01 unit price for electronic bid submission, with actual pricing to be determined through subsequent quote processes. The Commonwealth reserves the right to cancel the bid if responses exceed available funding, and the solicitation represents a re-solicitation of a previous RFB that was not awarded. Billing and administrative processes will be managed through the Department of Corrections Central Office in Frankfort, Kentucky.
