ITB - Repair of Various Roads and Related Items in the Beaumont Place Area for the BetterStreets2Neighborhoods Community Program for Harris County Precinct 2

The contract solicitation for repair of various roads and related items in the Beaumont Place Area under Harris County Precinct 2’s BetterStreets2Neighborhoods Community Program is a construction services procurement issued under NAICS code 237310 with solicitation number 26/0140, posted on May 8, 2026, and with responses due by June 1, 2026. The work is localized to Harris County, Texas, with the place of performance confined to the Beaumont Place Area and surrounding jurisdictions including Fort Bend, Montgomery, Brazoria, and Galveston Counties. The procurement is structured around a significant minority- and women-owned business enterprise (M/WBE) participation goal of 33%, mandating that all bidders demonstrate a valid, active M/WBE certification from an approved agency such as the City of Houston, TUCP, SBA, or WBENC, and ensure that certified firms perform a commercially useful function with a minimum of 30% self-performance, strictly prohibiting passive or window-dressing arrangements. Bidders must submit a fully completed M/WBE Utilization Plan with binding Letters of Intent, certified payroll records, W-9 forms, proof of insurance, and Texas Ethics Commission Form 1295, with failure to submit any required component leading to automatic disqualification. Pricing is tightly controlled: no increases are permitted within the first 90 days of contract commencement, subsequent increases must be spaced no less than 90 days apart, and any price reductions offered to other customers must be immediately passed through to the County, with only industry-wide changes supported by manufacturer documentation being acceptable. The contract includes four optional one-year renewals subject to Commission Court approval and CPI-U-based adjustments capped at 4% annually. Payment is governed under Net 30 terms from approval, with weekly certified payroll submissions required for all workers and adherence to the higher of the state prevailing wage or Harris County’s $21.65/hour minimum wage, enforced through unannounced site visits. Safety compliance is critical: prime contractors must certify no OSHA “Serious” or “Posting” violations with high gravity in the last two years and no SVEP listing in the last three years; subcontractors must have no “Willful,” “Repeated,” or “Failure to Abate” citations in the past three years, with ongoing disclosure obligations for any open or resolved violations. The contract explicitly prohibits any alterations to bid documents
