This contract solicitation, identified as Call 003 614020-133975, is issued by the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) for resurfacing and related highway construction work across multiple locations within District 1. The solicitation is electronically submitted through the bidx.com portal with a deadline of May 12, 2026, and is open to contractors who meet MassDOT’s specific participation requirements. The scope of work involves furnishing all labor, equipment, and materials necessary to perform resurfacing in compliance with the 2026 Standard Specifications for Highways and Bridges, Supplemental Specifications, Construction Standard Details, MUTCD with Massachusetts amendments, and referenced ASTM and AASHTO standards. Work must adhere to strict environmental and sediment control requirements, including the use of polyethylene sheeting and berms for stockpile management, and all excavated materials must be properly labeled with origin, ID, date, and contact information. The contract emphasizes mandatory participation goals for Minority- and Women-Owned Business Enterprises (M/WBEs) and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Business Enterprises (SDVOBEs), requiring certified participation through documented schedules, letters of intent, and electronic reporting via the Equitable Business Opportunity Solution (EBO) system. Prime contractors must ensure timely payment to these subcontractors within ten days of receiving payment from MassDOT, with the Department retaining the right to withhold funds if compliance is not met. The contract includes a fixed-price lump sum component of $24,000 for Schedule of Operations Type C, though the total contract value remains undetermined due to incomplete pricing data for other line items. The award will be based on a best-value trade-off methodology, balancing cost and performance quality, with no formal LPTA designation. Contract administration oversight is the responsibility of MassDOT’s Highway Division, with inspections conducted at project sites by the Engineer to verify conformance with technical, safety, and quality standards. All offers must include required certifications regarding debarment status, M/WBE/SDVOBE participation, and joint venture status, submitted electronically before the deadline, and must not include paper submissions.
