FY27 NW Gallatin Truck Wash Project

The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) is soliciting bids for the construction of a 55’-0” x 30’-0” Block Truck Wash with an attached 15’-8” x 8’-0” utility room under solicitation number MODOT 0000000359SL, with a bid deadline of August 18, 2026. This project, identified as the FY27 NW Gallatin Truck Wash Project, falls under NAICS code 236220 for building construction and requires strict adherence to technical specifications, including compliance with ASTM, ANSI, NFPA, UL, SSPC, AWS, and SMACNA standards. All bidders must attend a mandatory site visit for their proposals to be considered, and submissions must be made electronically through MissouriBUYS; hard copies are permitted only with prior written approval submitted at least five business days before the deadline. The contract is structured as a firm-fixed-price arrangement, with awards based on the lowest and best bid, factoring in price, vendor responsibility, past performance, and compliance with state statutes and executive orders. Non-price elements such as M/WBE participation, SDV/E preference, and adherence to the Anti-Discrimination Against Israel Act Certification (Exhibit M) are evaluated and may influence award decisions, indicating a trade-off methodology rather than a strictly lowest-priced technically acceptable approach. Contract performance is governed by detailed administrative and operational requirements, including full compliance with Missouri prevailing wage laws, mandatory OSHA 10 certification and photo ID for all personnel, and the use of ANSI Class 2 or 3 safety apparel when working in highway right-of-way. Contractors must carry minimum insurance coverages of $600,000 per occurrence and $4 million general aggregate liability, alongside $1 million workers’ compensation employer’s liability. The contract mandates strict material handling and storage protocols, requiring use of manufacturer-original containers, waterproof wrapping, climate-controlled storage for sensitive items, and proper labeling with product identifiers and handling instructions. Performance must be completed by April 6, 2027, with liquidated damages of $700 per calendar day for delays. All work is subject to inspection and acceptance solely by MoDOT, with the Architect/Engineer/Designer serving as the contract administrator. Subcontracting over 1% of the project value requires disclosure, and substitutions for specified products are permitted under strict conditions requiring technical equivalency documentation and approval by the
