208 Emory Street Drainage Improvements

The project involves stormwater drainage improvements at 208 Emory Street in Oxford, Georgia, including the removal and replacement of an 18-inch reinforced concrete pipe and concrete headwall, along with sidewalk removal and replacement and the installation of a concrete flume. The work must be completed within 45 calendar days of the Notice to Proceed, with bids due by October 2, 2025. The City of Oxford is soliciting bids through a digital process via QuestCDN, with a fee of $50 for access to the full bidding documents, which include detailed specifications, instructions, and general conditions. Bidders are required to submit a bid security of 5% of their bid amount, hold appropriate Georgia state contractor or utility licenses, and demonstrate efforts to include small and minority-owned businesses. The contract will be awarded based solely on the lowest responsive bid, with no additional technical or past performance evaluation factors explicitly specified. The contractual framework emphasizes compliance with Georgia state licensing laws, permits already obtained, and adherence to the City’s procurement procedures. No federal clauses or standard FAR provisions are incorporated or referenced, as the project is municipally funded. Payment will be made through monthly progress payments based on approved applications, with no specific details on invoicing procedures or contract administration contacts beyond the City Manager, Bill Andrew. The scope of work is clearly defined, but the documents do not specify inspection, acceptance criteria, or detailed line-item pricing, which can be obtained from the full bidding package. Overall, the project aims to enhance stormwater management infrastructure efficiently within a tight timeline, encouraging participation from small and minority-owned businesses and adhering to Georgia licensing requirements.
