Completed Letting - May 6, 2026

The South Dakota Department of Transportation issued a solicitation on May 6, 2026, under number SDBID-0F03BFE651C4DAE8E978466C95244080B0AEEC3AD011F23F for multiple highway reconstruction and rehabilitation projects across various locations in South Dakota, including the Huron, Watertown, Winner, and Sioux Falls areas, as well as stretches of US18, US281, and SD43. The work encompasses a range of construction activities such as cold milling, asphalt concrete resurfacing, crack sealing, rout and seal, pipe installation including 30" RCP arch and 60" bored and jacked pipe, excavation, intersection improvements, and pavement marking with preformed thermoplastic and temporary raised markers. The solicitation includes bid item line items with detailed unit pricing for mobilization, material placement, traffic control, and optional excavations, with some items featuring optional quantities and pricing structures. Performance is evaluated on a per-day basis with incentive and disincentive payments tied to scheduling, and the scope is presumed to align with South Dakota DOT standard specifications though no specific references to ASTM, AASHTO, or MIL-STD are provided. The solicitation does not include standard federal contract clauses, representation or certification requirements, packaging or marking instructions, or details on payment, invoicing, or contract administration such as COR/COTR contacts, accounting codes, or remittance instructions. There are no defined evaluation factors, nor is the contract type explicitly stated, though the nature of the work suggests a fixed-price structure. No formal attachments, submissions guidelines, or proposal format rules are documented in the provided material. The place of performance spans numerous sites statewide, and while the letting date is May 6, 2026, the period of performance is not defined beyond task-based milestones. The bid abstracts reflect separate project proposals from contractors including Knife River Midwest LLC and Jensen Rock & Sand, Inc., but aggregated total contract value cannot be determined from the fragmented data, and socioeconomic set-asides are not indicated. The documents appear to be post-letting award summaries rather than a complete solicitation package, leaving many contractual and procedural details unaddressed.
