This contract, solicitation number 6501-28-001, issued by the Texas Department of Transportation for a June 2026 letting, outlines maintenance services in Coryell County under the NAICS code 237310, classified as a state-level procurement. The work involves traffic control and roadway maintenance activities, including crack sealing, installation of warning lights, barrier reflectors, temporary pavement markings, raised markers, and Portable Changeable Message Signs, all governed by the Texas Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, TxDOT Standard Specifications effective September 1, 2024, and specific DMS standards. Performance is not bound by fixed dates but operates on an as-required basis, with work available for implementation at the Engineer’s direction, and locations are tied to specific roadway segments within Coryell County such as US 84 and FM 929. The contract emphasizes compliance with TxDOT and AASHTO testing protocols for materials, including PG binder requirements, DSR and BBR testing for asphalt, and dimensional and retroreflective standards for signage and markers. Inspection and acceptance are conducted by the Engineer at the work site, with the contractor responsible for execution, correction of deficiencies, and timely request for inspections. The contract imposes several special requirements in lieu of standard FAR clauses, including mandatory use of E-Verify for workforce eligibility verification, compliance with federal and state nondiscrimination regulations under 49 CFR 21, and a requirement for contractors to complete and submit Form 1295 if the contract value exceeds $1 million. Contractors must also certify no conflicts of interest under Texas law and adhere to strict data security protocols, including safeguards for TxDOT information, prohibition of password sharing, and full accountability for cost of any data breach.
