The project has a 60-day performance period following the Notice to Proceed, with bids due by August 13, 2026, and must be submitted physically in sealed envelopes to the City Clerk’s office. No electronic submissions are accepted. Contract compliance requires strict adherence to federal and state regulations, including Buy American standards for iron, steel, and manufactured products; equal employment opportunity and nondiscrimination requirements; Davis-Bacon prevailing wage obligations; OSHA safety compliance; and prohibitions against federal lobbying and the use of segregated facilities. Contractors must certify that they are not debarred, suspended, or convicted of certain felonies or tax delinquencies, and must disclose any non-federal lobbying activities. Domestic preference and trade restriction certifications are mandatory, and good faith efforts toward Disadvantaged Business Enterprise participation are required for award consideration. The evaluation basis is Lowest Price Technically Acceptable, with technical acceptability determined by compliance with all mandatory requirements and no trade-offs permitted on cost.
