Who this opportunity suits

This project is a total small-business set-aside, meaning only small businesses are eligible to bid.

Firms specializing in pavement repair and general construction for infrastructure projects would find this suitable. Davis-Bacon wage rates apply to this project.

How to respond

This is a Request for Quotation (RFQ), and proposals are being requested without a separate written solicitation being issued. The agency will evaluate quotes based on price alone, and no discussions will be held. You should provide your quote in accordance with your terms and conditions.

To access the full details and documents, you will need to click the “View original source” link on the portal. If the first click takes you to the portal's homepage, click it again to go directly to the bid. You may need to create a free account to view all documents, though this is not always required.

Tips for preparing a competitive response

Since the evaluation is based on price alone, ensure your quote is highly competitive while still allowing for quality work and profit. Carefully review the Statement of Work (SOW) to fully understand the scope of repairs needed and factor all costs, including labor, materials, and equipment, into your pricing.

Pay close attention to the Davis-Bacon wage rate requirements, as these will impact your labor costs. If you plan to attend the site visit, make sure to submit your base-pass documents well in advance of the five-day deadline to ensure access. This visit can provide valuable insights into the project's specific conditions and requirements.
