Travis County — CSJ 0914-04-364 — June 2026 Letting — State-Let Construction

The contract solicitation under number 0914-04-364, issued by the Texas Department of Transportation for a June 2026 letting, encompasses state-let construction work within Travis County, Texas, primarily focused on the installation, integration, and testing of CCTV camera systems and associated infrastructure such as traffic sign cabling, pavement markings, and communication equipment. The work requires compliance with a comprehensive set of technical standards including the National Electrical Code, NTSC video specifications, TxDOT guidelines, NEMA, UL/NRL certifications, and federal regulations under 23 CFR, with performance outputs mandating video signal integrity at 75-ohm impedance and 140 IRE amplitude, system operation without failure for at least one year, and successful completion of phased field and integration testing followed by a 90-day continuous operation period before final acceptance. Contractors must demonstrate prior experience with at least three similar projects and submit detailed operation and maintenance manuals in both hard-copy and electronic formats. The contract is subject to numerous federal and state-mandated clauses including nondiscrimination in employment, on-the-job training for disadvantaged groups, Americans with Disabilities Act curb ramp requirements, Cargo Preference Act obligations requiring use of U.S.-flag vessels, and mandatory submission of Form 1295 identifying interested parties. The contractor must also perform a minimum of 30% of the work using its own workforce under direct supervision and cannot subcontract any portion without prior written approval, with all subcontracts required to flow down applicable compliance clauses. The place of performance is the project site in Travis County where all inspections and acceptance tests occur, and failure to meet performance criteria may trigger liquidated damages as outlined in the contract. Payment and invoice procedures are referenced as subject to the Prompt Payment Act and Davis-Bacon requirements, though specific remittance instructions, accounting codes, or invoicing platforms are not detailed. No set-aside status, socioeconomic certifications, or DBE participation goals are specified, and while procurement is likely conducted under a firm-fixed-price structure consistent with highway construction, the exact contract type and total value remain uncalculated due to incomplete pricing data. All submissions must adhere to TxDOT’s bid formats and procedures, with proposals to be submitted through designated portals and in compliance with mandatory certifications covering equal employment opportunity, lobbying disclosures, and debarment eligibility.
