Lehman Rd Pump Station Improvements

The City of Kyle is soliciting proposals for the Lehman Rd Pump Station Improvements, project number 2026-076, to address increased water storage and pumping needs in the southeastern portion of the city, specifically within Pressure Plane 1. Identified in the April 2025 Water Master Plan, the project focuses on the Lehman facility due to its proximity to the Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority transmission main. The scope of work involves improving a water tank pump station, including the installation of fittings and components to manage blowdown, fuel input/output, and injection/ejection rates, with the goal of consolidating pumping operations and improving system redundancy. The solicitation was posted on November 9, 2026, with a response deadline of December 17, 2026. Award selection is based on a scoring system totaling 100 base points plus 10 optional interview points, where contract price is a significant but not sole determining factor. Proposers must submit a completed proposal form, a bid bond of at least 5 percent of the total proposal, and various qualification documents, including financial statements, safety performance certifications, and a progress schedule. The successful contractor must provide performance and payment bonds, adhere to prevailing wage rates, and ensure all work complies with safety codes and the Americans with Disabilities Act. All proposals and inquiries are managed through the OpenGov procurement portal.
