UDOT Region 1 - Electric Gate Sales, Install, Repair & Maintenance

The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT), Division of Procurement, is requesting bids for electric gate sales, installation, repair, and maintenance services under IFB Solicitation #UDOT270080JB, with bids due October 28, 2026. This is a single-award, five-year contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Award is based solely on pricing; no evaluation criteria beyond cost and responsiveness are specified.

The scope encompasses sales, installation, repair, and maintenance services for electrically powered and solar-powered moving gates at UDOT Region 1 facilities in Box Elder, Cache, Davis, Morgan, Rich, and Weber counties. The contractor must support gate systems ranging from 16 to 35 feet in width, including associated components such as numeric and alpha keypads, remote transmitters (ten units per opener included, with pricing for additional units), and photo eye safety equipment. Prior government agency experience is mandatory. The contractor must provide an executive summary detailing relevant work history, maintain bonding up to $100,000, and demonstrate financial capacity to procure materials without advance payments. Pricing is guaranteed for one year; subsequent price adjustments require equal guarantee periods and at least 30 days' notice with documented mathematical justification. UDOT retains the immediate benefit of any market decreases or allowable discounts.

The contractor must carry workers' compensation insurance, commercial general liability insurance with UDOT listed as an additional insured (minimum $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate), and commercial automobile liability insurance of $1,000,000 per occurrence if vehicles are used. All goods and services are warranted for one year against defects. Work area safety is the contractor's responsibility. UDOT does not guarantee any minimum purchase quantity. All work is subject to inspection with rights to reject non-compliant services or require corrective action at contractor expense within seven days of written notice. Bidding occurs through the online bidding system; bids received after the closing time are deemed late and ineligible. All questions must be submitted through the online system; answers posted there may constitute addenda.
