Crane Creek Greenway

Richland County, South Carolina, is soliciting bids for the Crane Creek Greenway project under solicitation number RC-801-B-26, with a response deadline of June 16, 2026. The project, classified under NAICS code 237310 for Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction, involves comprehensive construction activities including demolition, site work, concrete, masonry, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, landscaping, and other building systems, with an estimated contract value ranging from $1,595,121 to $2,295,987 depending on whether Alternate #1 is accepted. The work must be performed strictly in accordance with county specifications, state and federal regulations, including South Carolina D.H.E.C. environmental standards, the Energy Policy and Conservation Act, and the Drug-Free Workplace Act, with all construction carried out in a good workmanlike manner. The County requires full compliance with bonding and insurance thresholds, including $1,000,000 general liability, $1,000,000 automobile liability, $2,000,000 umbrella coverage, and 100% performance and payment bonds if mandated. A 15% Small Local Business Enterprise participation goal is set, with required reporting and good faith efforts documentation for any shortfall, and minority and disadvantaged business enterprise participation is encouraged under state-level certification programs. Contract administration is overseen by the Director of Procurement and a designated Contracting Officer’s Representative, with inspections conducted by the County Engineer and Project Designer at both origin and project site locations. Final acceptance requires submission of numerous closeout documents, including as-built drawings, warranties, lien waivers, consent of surety, and minority participation reports, with all work subject to punch list resolution before formal sign-off. Invoicing procedures are outlined with requirements for detailed cost breakdowns and contact information, though no specific electronic invoicing platform like WAWF is mandated. The contract includes clauses covering affirmative action, anti-kickback and anti-lobbying provisions, audit rights, dispute resolution, assignment restrictions, project documentation, and amendments, all using local numbering rather than FAR-standard identifiers. Contractors must comply with strict security protocols, including background checks for all personnel, prior approval for utility work, and adherence to County rules, with the County retaining the right to suspend work at any time for non-compliance. All submissions must be made electronically via the OpenGov portal by the deadline, with
