The project must be completed within 180 calendar days from the Notice to Proceed, with all construction and cleanup included in this timeline. Bidders must demonstrate relevant experience with similar public works projects completed within the last five years, particularly work involving confined areas in close proximity to multiple utility features including gas lines, sewer systems, and utility poles. The City will award the contract to the lowest responsible bidder in accordance with Texas Local Government Code Chapter 252, and all goods and services must comply with Americans with Disabilities Act requirements. Bids may be submitted electronically through Bonfire at www.gobonfire.com or in paper format to the City of Lewisville Finance Administration – Purchasing Division at 751 E Valley Ridge Boulevard, Lewisville, Texas 75057. A pre-bid conference is recommended, and all questions must be submitted through the Bonfire platform's questions and answers section. Bidders must examine the project site prior to submission, and bids must remain firm for ninety days.

No specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or minority-owned businesses are identified in the procurement documents. However, the City may apply state reciprocal bidding requirements under Texas Government Code Section 2252.002, which allows non-resident bids to be considered only if they are lower than the lowest responsible Texas resident bid by the amount that Texas residents would be required to underbid non-residents in the bidder's home state. Bid security requirements vary based on project amount: projects between $25,000 and $99,999 require a payment bond and two-year maintenance bond, while projects of $100,000 or greater require a bid bond equal to five percent of the project amount, plus performance and payment bonds at the project amount. Retainage will be held at ten percent for contracts exceeding $25,000 but less than $400,000. The successful bidder must furnish the required bonds within fifteen calendar days of award notification and must submit a completed Bidder's Qualification Statement with their proposal or face disqualification as non-responsive. The project is subject to prevailing wage rates as determined by the General Services Commission using Federal Davis Bacon Wage Rates. No specific budget range or award value is published; however, bond and retainage requirements indicate an anticipated project cost exceeding $25,000, with final award value dependent on responsive bid submissions.
