Dallas County — CSJ 0918-47-490 — June 2026 Letting — State-Let Construction

The contract solicitation 0918-47-490 issued by the Texas Department of Transportation for a state-let construction project in Dallas County is set for a June 2026 letting with a response deadline on the same date. The work falls under NAICS code 237310 and involves state-funded transportation infrastructure with compliance obligations tied to federal-aid guidelines governed by FHWA Form 1273. The scope of work requires full adherence to TxDOT specifications and statewide performance standards under 43 TAC §9.23–9.27, mandating contractors to implement Corrective Action Plans for any deficiencies identified during inspections and to complete all remediation within 120 days to avoid referral to a Performance Review Committee. Inspection and acceptance occur exclusively at the project site, where the contractor bears sole responsibility for ensuring materials and workmanship meet standards such as the National Electrical Code, AASHTO and ASTM test methods for asphalt binders, and TxDOT pavement marking protocols, including the use of calibrated equipment and certified payroll reporting under 29 CFR Part 5. Special provisions enforce stringent compliance with federal and state regulations including nondiscrimination in employment, EEO obligations covering race, gender, sexual orientation, disability, and national origin, and active promotion of diverse workforce inclusion through training programs and recruitment outreach. Contractors must submit a Certificate of Interested Parties (FHWA Form 1295), comply with the Cargo Preference Act for shipping, and certify no delinquency in child support payments per Texas law. A 0% DBE participation goal applies, and subcontractors are bound by the same compliance obligations as the prime contractor, who remains ultimately liable for their adherence. The contract prohibits subletting without written approval and mandates a qualified, full-time superintendent with direct authority over site operations. Unit prices are listed for items such as asphalt, concrete, and pavement markings using ALT numbering, but no total contract value is calculated or disclosed. Proposals must follow TxDOT’s official form, be submitted by the advertised date and time, and include required certifications—all without specified page limits or digital submission formats. Payment and administrative details including COR/COTR contacts, remittance instructions, and accounting codes are absent, while evaluation criteria and award methodology are not outlined, suggesting award will be based on lowest responsive bid meeting compliance thresholds.
