FY26-CP-E14

The Bulloch County Board of Commissioners is soliciting sealed bids from GDOT-prequalified subcontractors for the FY26-CP-E14 County Road Restriping Project, which involves applying high-build wet weather traffic paint, thermoplastic striping, raised pavement markers, pavement arrows with reflectors, and preformed plastic markings across approximately 72 miles of county-maintained paved roads in Bulloch County, Georgia. Work must commence within 30 days of the Notice to Proceed, achieve Substantial Completion within 90 days, and attain Final Acceptance no later than 120 days after issuance of the Notice. The County will evaluate bids using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable approach, awarding the contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder whose proposal meets all mandatory technical requirements. Bidders must submit a complete sealed package including Forms A through E, covering bid pricing, non-collusion, bidder declaration, and mandatory E-Verify compliance under Georgia law O.C.G.A. § 13-10-91, with submission of the E-Verify Company ID number being critical—failure to provide it will result in automatic bid rejection. The contract requires performance bonds equal to 100% of the contract price and insurance including $1 million per occurrence/$2 million aggregate general liability, $1 million auto liability, and workers’ compensation as mandated by law, with the County named as additional insured. All work must conform to GDOT Standard Specifications for Construction, 2021 edition, MUTCD Part 6, and GDOT Special Provision 150 for traffic control, utilizing only approved materials from the GDOT Qualified Products List. The contractor is obligated to remove existing markings, install new striping per exact specifications, maintain traffic control throughout, and correct all punch list items before final acceptance. Liquidated damages of $150 per day apply for delays beyond the 90- and 120-day milestones. Change orders require written approval with overhead and profit marked at 14% for prime work and 7.5% for subcontracted efforts. The contractor must comply with Georgia prevailing wage rates, indemnify the County against claims (excluding those caused solely by the County's negligence), protect existing utilities, and cannot assign the contract without explicit written consent. Bids must be received in sealed physical form by May 28, 2026, at 3:00 PM EDT at the Bulloch County Procurement Office
