Stormwater Control Measure (SCM) Maintenance

The Town of Chapel Hill, North Carolina is seeking bids for the rehabilitation of 31 Stormwater Control Measures (SCMs) across 13 Town facilities over three fiscal years. The project will be completed in three phases, with each phase addressing one-third of the SCMs. The work includes corrective actions proposed by a third-party consultant who inspected the SCMs, such as bioretention cells, wet ponds, dry detention basins, stormwater wetlands, level spreaders, and vegetated filter strips. Bidders must demonstrate experience maintaining these types of SCMs. The contract will be awarded to the most favorable bid, and the Town reserves the right to reject any or all bids. A mandatory pre-bid conference will be held on April 8, 2024, and bids are due on April 22, 2024. The Town Council is expected to approve the contract on May 15, 2024, and the project is to be completed within 252 days of the Notice to Proceed for Phase 1. Liquidated damages of $125 per calendar day will be assessed for failure to complete the work on time.

This contract opportunity is open to all qualified vendors. The Town has not identified any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. There is no information provided about any incumbent vendors or current contractors, or any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The bid request includes unit price cost estimates, but does not provide a specific award value or budget range.
