Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs) registered with the U.S. Small Business Administration Center for Veteran Enterprise are eligible to receive a 5% bid preference, and resident bidders are entitled to a preference equal to that given by nonresident bidders' home states. All insurance policies must be issued by companies with an AM Best rating of A-VIII or better, and CPW reserves the right to conduct material inspections at the bidder's quarry prior to award, with the Project Manager contacting the low bidder to schedule inspection at least five working days after bid closure. All trucking and delivery services must be provided by the vendor on an as-needed basis with multiple deliveries due to limited on-site storage capacity, and the state will not reimburse shipping or freight charges, as all costs including delivery must be incorporated into the final bid price. Quantities shall be measured by the ton at the delivery site using certified scales, and certified weight tickets must accompany all payment applications; CPW will award to the low bidder meeting all material specifications. Payment will occur following inspection and acceptance of materials by the CPW project manager, with ACH/EFT payments encouraged and payment due within 45 days of receipt and acceptance of a correct invoice. The procurement is structured as a single vendor award, and no specific budget range or incumbent vendor information has been identified in the solicitation documents.
