The Warsaw Board of Aviation Commissioners is soliciting bids for Phase 2 of the rehabilitation of Runway 9-27 at the Warsaw Municipal Airport in Warsaw, Indiana. The scope of work includes asphalt pavement rehabilitation such as milling, paving, full-depth patching, grooving, and pavement markings, with all work requiring strict adherence to FAA Advisory Circulars including AC 150/5340-1, AC 150/5340-18, and AC 150/5340-30 for visual aids, as well as AASHTO, ASTM, and Federal Specifications for materials and construction standards. Proposals must be submitted electronically through the BidExpress portal by 3:00 p.m. EDT on Wednesday, May 20, 2026, and will be publicly opened immediately after the deadline. The project is expected to last 45 calendar days from the Notice to Proceed, which includes 38 days of active construction and 7 days dedicated to grooving and painting after a 30-day cure period. The Contract Documents include the Project Manual, drawings, addenda, bid proposal, performance and payment bonds, certificates of insurance, and other supplemental materials, all of which are binding upon award. Contractors must be responsive and responsible, with bid evaluations based on a trade-off analysis that considers price alongside overall project fit and conformance with specifications. The award will go to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder whose proposal best meets the Owner’s needs, with the possibility of combining the base bid with Alternate No. 1. All materials and workmanship must conform to contract documents and be subject to inspection and acceptance by the Resident Project Representative on behalf of the Owner, who retains authority to reject nonconforming items. Subcontractor involvement requires DBE certification documentation, and contractors must submit certifications against debarment, non-collusion affidavits, EEO compliance statements, and proof of U.S.-produced steel if applicable. Safety is governed by a site-specific safety plan aligned with FAA guidelines, and all construction activities must coordinate with airport operations and local utilities. Final acceptance occurs on-site, requiring as-built drawings, operation and maintenance manuals, and certified payment documentation. Payment is processed through the Engineer for certification, then via the Warsaw Board of Aviation Commissioners using FAA grant funds, though no specific accounting codes or payment office details are provided. No formal FAR clauses are incorporated; instead, the contract relies on locally defined terms
