161859-26-01 ROOF REPLACEMENT CORPUS CHRISTI DHQ - Duplicate 1

The Texas Department of Transportation is soliciting bids for the roof replacement project at its Corpus Christi District Headquarters located at 1701 South Padre Island Drive, Corpus Christi, Texas 78416. The solicitation, identified as 161859-26-01, was posted on June 28, 2026, with bids due by August 5, 2026, at 12:00 PM Central Time. TxDOT will not disclose an estimated project cost, requiring bidders to independently evaluate the scope and submit competitive bids based on their own cost analyses and market research. The contract is to be awarded on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable basis, with responsiveness determined by full compliance with technical specifications, contract terms, and Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) subcontracting requirements. Bidders must register on the TxDOT Bonfire procurement portal to submit proposals electronically; hard-copy submissions are prohibited, and late bids will be rejected outright. The work includes the full replacement of the roof system, with specific requirements for materials to meet ASTM, APA, and DOC standards, and installation must conform to TxDOT’s 2014 Standard Specifications. All materials must be delivered in original manufacturer packaging, protected from weather and distortion during transit, and stored in climate-controlled environments not below 45°F. Acceptance occurs at the project site, with inspections governed by industry standards including ASTM, FM Global, and UL criteria, and must be verified by NRTL or NVLAP-accredited entities. The contractor must submit shop drawings, submittals, test logs, and an operation and maintenance manual including a servicing and lubrication schedule. HUB subcontracting is mandatory for contracts over $100,000, requiring the submission of a detailed plan, documented outreach to at least two VetHUB vendors, and monthly compliance reporting; failure to meet these obligations renders a bid non-responsive. Performance and payment bonds are required if contract value exceeds $100,000 and $25,000 respectively, along with several insurance coverages, including worker’s compensation and builder’s risk. Off-site storage of materials is permitted only in bonded commercial warehouses with TxDOT named as additional insured, and TxDOT may inspect or reject materials at any time. The contract allows for unilateral change orders from TxDOT, emergency changes initiated by the contractor with full documentation, and supplemental instructions for
