Call 004 613383-133723

The solicitation for Call 004 613383-133723, issued by the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT), seeks proposals for infrastructure work within District 4, specifically in the Lynnfield-Wakefield area under Federal Aid Project No. NHP(IM)-0954(007)X. The scope includes pavement fine milling, precast and asymmetrical concrete median barriers, traffic control plan implementation, mobilization, and a fixed-price schedule of operations valued at $117,500, with a total contract duration estimated at 26 months. Work must comply with federal and state regulations including OSHA safety standards, Davis-Bacon wage requirements, and environmental and employment compliance mandates. Performance location is strictly defined within the state highway right-of-way, with inspection and acceptance occurring at both the HMA production facility and field placement sites, governed by AASHTO testing protocols and detailed volumetric and bitumen content criteria. Contractors are required to meet stringent retroreflectivity standards for pavement markings using ASTM E1710, E2177, and E2832, maintain pipeline signage with owner, content, pressure, burial depth, and emergency contact information, and ensure all work is conducted by certified installers following manufacturer guidance. Contract administration is governed by Massachusetts-specific execution clauses rather than standard FAR provisions, requiring execution by a duly authorized representative with submission of an original board vote and MassDOT certification. Contractors must demonstrate state tax compliance, provide detailed disclosures for Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) subcontractors including letters of intent and valid certifications, and submit certified payroll records under CWHSSA. All proposals must be electronically submitted via the BIDX portal by May 19, 2026, and bidders are required to have an active MassDOT vendor code and digital ID obtained at least 14 days in advance. While no formal contract value is fully determinable due to incomplete pricing data, evaluation of proposals will focus on performance metrics including workmanship, safety, schedule adherence, home office support, contract compliance, equipment readiness, and payment of accounts, each scored on a numeric scale with an overall threshold of 80% required for satisfactory performance. No packaging, preservation, bar-coding, or military standards are specified, and no individual COR, COTR, or PCO is identified, though oversight authority remains with the MassDOT Engineer.
