LOCAL LET MAINTENANCE CONTRACT, HEMPHILL CO, HOT MIX

The Texas Department of Transportation is soliciting bids for a localized maintenance contract to perform hot mix asphalt pavement work along U.S. Highway 83 in Hemphill County, Texas, with an estimated contract value of $614,500. The solicitation, numbered 6507-02-001_0826, was posted on July 22, 2026, and bids are due by 2:00 p.m. on August 20, 2026, with submissions required through the Electronic State Business Daily and Electronic Bidding System. Work must be completed within 120 calendar days of contract award, and the performance location spans various unspecified segments along the highway, with exact details provided only in referenced plan sheets. The contract is a waived project, open only to prequalified contractors, and while the exact contract type is not stated, the nature of the purchase suggests a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable award methodology is likely. A performance guarantee of $12,000 is required, and the Texas DOT’s Amarillo District office serves as the sole point of contact for bid inquiries, with no separate payment office or contracting officer representative named. The procurement falls under NAICS code 237310 for highway and street construction, and the agency code is 601 with project number MMC - A00223482, though specific accounting identifiers like AAC, TAS, or ACRN are not provided. No detailed statement of work, specifications, or inspection criteria are included in the public posting; bidders must refer to official documents in the ESBD for applicable TxDOT standards, materials requirements, and quality controls. There are no listed packaging, marking, or invoicing instructions, and no clause, representation, or certification details are disclosed beyond directing respondents to the official platforms. The lack of a small business goal (set at 0.0%) and absence of detailed evaluation factors, line-item pricing, or special requirements further indicate this is a streamlined, low-cost maintenance project relying on standard TxDOT procedures and prequalification. All bid-related documentation, including potential addenda, is accessible exclusively through the Electronic State Business Daily and Electronic Bidding System, making these portals the definitive source for compliance.
