The contract duration is 180 consecutive calendar days from the Notice to Proceed, and bidders must submit a 5% bid bond. Evaluation criteria will focus on responsiveness, responsibility, and pricing, with the city reserving the right to reject any or all bids and award to the lowest responsive bidder.

Bidders must provide a Contractor Affidavit, references, and supporting documentation as part of their submission. The successful contractor will be required to obtain 100% payment and performance bonds, with bonding and insurance companies needing an A.M. Best rating of A-5 or higher and being licensed to do business in Georgia. Insurance requirements include various liability coverages, with the City of Lawrenceville to be named as an additional insured. All materials for the project will be supplied by the City of Lawrenceville, making this a line-item bid with a not-to-exceed total.
