About this opportunity
Southern Delaware County Authority is soliciting online sealed bids for maintenance of its sanitary sewer system for January 1, 2027 through December 31, 2031, with bids due November 13, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. through the PennBid Program. No disadvantaged-enterprise set-aside is designated in this procurement.
The scope covers clearing obstructed sanitary lines, quarterly cleaning of specified manhole sections, and emergency response within one hour of notification, with restoration of work areas to original condition. Services include high-pressure hydraulic sewer cleaning, vacuum truck and bucket machine operations, and extraordinary maintenance such as television inspection, chemical grouting, and root treatment. Pricing is hourly for five service categories, with unit prices required for each contract year. The emergency protocol for sewage backups assigns costs to the Authority for main-line blockages and to property owners for lateral-line problems. All work must comply with Pennsylvania prevailing wage rates, township ordinances, and railroad and utility regulations.
Bidders must submit a bid bond or certified check equal to 10% of the first-year annual cost base bid, a Non-Collusion Affidavit, and a notarized Bidder's Qualifications Statement. Before contract execution, the successful bidder must provide a Performance Bond and a Labor and Materials Payment Bond, each for 100% of the contract price. Required insurance includes statutory workers' compensation, public liability coverage of $500,000/$1,000,000, and property damage coverage of $500,000/$1,000,000.
The Authority reserves the right to award the base bid year only or any combination of optional years, with annual renewal decisions made by November 30 of each preceding year. The successful bidder pays the PennBid Program a fee of one-third percent of the contract award value, with a minimum of $150 and a maximum of $6,000. The Authority reserves the right to reject any or all bids and to waive informalities. Two attachments are posted: the specification document and the required bid documents.
