Concrete Removal/Installation in BLDG. 682 at Wichita Falls State Hospital

The Health and Human Services Commission of Texas is seeking competitive bids for concrete removal and installation services at Building 682 of the Wichita Falls State Hospital under Solicitation Number HHS0017363, a one-time procurement with a NAICS code of 238110. The project requires the sawing, cutting, and removal of all affected driveway areas and the installation of four sections of concrete parking with a minimum thickness of six inches, reinforced with half-inch steel placed at eighteen-inch centers each way. All labor, tools, equipment, materials, and supplies must be furnished by the contractor, with work restricted to weekdays between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Central Time, fully compliant with all federal, state, and local regulations. Attendance at a mandatory site visit on May 18, 2026, at 10:30 a.m. is required for bid eligibility, and failure to attend in person will result in disqualification. Bidders must notify Maintenance Supervisor Gary Lievense of their intent to attend. Responses must be submitted via email to [email hidden] or through the HHS Online Bid Room by June 2, 2026, at 10:30 a.m., with all submissions required in Microsoft Office or PDF formats and no hard copies accepted. The contract will commence upon award and extend through August 31, 2026, with an option for the agency to extend performance for up to one additional year. Pricing must be submitted via Exhibit C as firm, fixed prices inclusive of all costs, with no reimbursement allowed for per diem, travel, hotel, equipment, phone calls, paper, reproduction services, office space, or other incidental expenses. Evaluation will prioritize compliance, performance, price, and ability to perform, with past performance serving as a pass/fail gate—bidders with a VPTS rating below “C” or an active corrective action plan will be disqualified. The award will be made based on best value to the State of Texas, not necessarily the lowest price. Contractors must possess a Texas Identification Number, submit a Certificate of Interested Parties via the Texas Ethics Commission upon potential award, and provide current insurance documentation including employer’s liability coverage of $1,000,000 per accident and per employee, with coverage maintaining primary status over HHS insurance. All personnel must undergo background checks including SSN verification and statewide and out-of-state criminal history, and
