The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) is seeking bids for a comprehensive flooring replacement project at its St. Louis District Office located at 1590 Woodlake Drive in Chesterfield, Missouri. The procurement involves removing existing carpet, marble tile, and vinyl flooring and installing new flooring materials, specifically Shaw Kinetic tile 59359 carpet with Shaw 5000 adhesive throughout most areas, Shaw Contract All Access Lava 34549 carpet in the lobby entrance, and Shaw Crete 03520 Industrial hard surface flooring. The contractor will be responsible for moving furniture, file cabinets, and miscellaneous items, as well as removing existing cove base and installing new Johnsonite 4.5" and 6" gray cove base. Work must be performed between 4 PM and 7 AM Monday through Sunday, with a total project completion timeline of 40 working days, including 15 days for submittals. A pre-bid meeting was held on September 24, 2019, and bids were due on October 4, 2019, at 3:00 PM CDT. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with a requirement for a bid bond or security equal to 5% of the bid amount for bids over $49,999.99.

The solicitation encourages participation from Minority Business Enterprises (MBE) at 10% and Women Business Enterprises (WBE) at 5%, though these are not mandatory requirements. Service-Disabled Veteran Enterprise (SDVE) participation is also encouraged. Bidders must be registered in the MissouriBUYS system and comply with prevailing wage requirements, as the project exceeds $75,000. The successful contractor must provide a 100% performance and payment bond and maintain specific insurance coverages, including $500,000 per occurrence/$3,000,000 aggregate for general and automobile liability, as well as workers' compensation coverage. Liquidated damages of $200 per day will be assessed for late completion. While no specific budget range was explicitly stated, the requirement for a bid bond suggests the project has a substantial financial scope. The contract terms include net 30-day payment conditions and FOB destination delivery terms, indicating a standard government procurement approach for this infrastructure improvement project.
