Summer 2026 Parking Lot Sealcoating & Restriping

Rochester Public Schools (ISD #535) in Morrison County, Minnesota, has issued a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for summer 2026 parking lot sealcoating and restriping services at nine school sites: Gibbs Elementary, Kellogg Middle School, Churchill Elementary, Folwell Elementary, FSC (Facilities Service Center), Phoenix Academy, Willow Creek Middle School, ALC (Alternative Learning Center), and Elton Hills Elementary. The procurement seeks qualified contractors to perform crack sealing, two-coat sealcoat application, and parking lot restriping. Pricing submissions must follow a line-item format per site, including mobilization costs (lump sum), crack sealing (linear foot pricing), sealcoat application for two coats (square yard pricing), and striping (lump sum). The District may award all sites to a single contractor or split awards by individual site, allowing bidders to quote specific sites, all sites, or combinations thereof. Contractor qualifications require a minimum of three years in business providing sealcoating and striping services and at least three similar K-12 parking lot projects completed in Minnesota within the past five years. Required submissions include proof of insurance, technical data sheets for all products, a proposed work schedule, and a signed acknowledgment. Quotes are due May 1, 2026, by 1:00 PM CST via the Bonfire portal, with an anticipated award date of May 1, 2026, and work scheduled for June 2026 with completion targeted by June 30, 2026. Contractors are encouraged to schedule site visits with Steve Uribe, Assistant Manager of Grounds & Trucking, prior to submission. The District will evaluate proposals based on lowest price among qualified bidders and reserves the right to request references from the apparent low bidder prior to award, reject any or all quotes, and inspect work upon completion.

The RFQ documentation does not identify any set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise requirements, or restrictions limiting eligibility to specific organization types, indicating this is an open competition available to all qualified contractors meeting the stated experience criteria. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the procurement materials. Upon satisfactory completion and District inspection, payment will be made per site, and the contractor shall provide a warranty covering all materials and workmanship with defects corrected at the contractor's expense during the warranty period. No specific budget range or award value is disclosed in the available procurement documents; interested contractors must develop competitive quotes based on the line-item pricing structure and site-specific scope details provided in the project maps and RFQ specifications to determine potential award values.
