About this opportunity

The City of Lubbock, Texas is requesting proposals for construction services on the West Lubbock Water System Expansion project under RFP 25-19431-AE, with proposals due March 12, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. The estimated budget for the construction phase is $10.5 million, and the contractor must complete work within 335 consecutive calendar days from Notice to Proceed (which follows 30 days after award).

Evaluation criteria are weighted 60 points for price, 30 points for contractor qualifications, and 10 points for construction time. The lowest proposal price and lowest construction time serve as evaluation standards against which other proposals are scored using formula calculation. Contractors must comply with Texas Government Code Chapter 2258 prevailing wage requirements and pay workers not less than the general prevailing rate of per diem wages for similar work in the locality.

All offerors must submit a proposal bond or certified check of not less than 5% of total proposal value. Performance and payment bonds equal to 100% of the total contract price are required, issued by carriers with a Best Rating of "A" or better. Contractors must obtain all required insurance, including workers' compensation coverage, and provide certificates prior to commencing work. No escalation clauses for changes in material, labor, or other costs are permitted; proposals containing such conditions will be rejected. The City of Lubbock qualifies for Texas sales tax exemption, and the contractor must obtain a limited sales, excise, and use tax permit to purchase materials without paying tax at purchase.

A non-mandatory pre-proposal conference will be held via Zoom on February 24, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. Proposals will be publicly opened and read aloud on March 12, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. via teleconference. Lubbock City Council will consider proposals for award on April 14, 2026. Proposals may be submitted electronically through Bonfire or in hard copy to Marta Alvarez, Director of Purchasing and Contract Management, City of Lubbock, Citizens Tower, 1314 Avenue K, Floor 9, Lubbock, Texas 79401.
