The City of Columbia, South Carolina, is soliciting bids for the North Tanglewood Construction project under solicitation number BID027-25-26-WRO-CDBE-SD8478 Addendum 3, with responses due by June 12, 2026. The project involves storm drainage rehabilitation along North Tanglewood Drive, Mahalo Lane, Dill Court, and Hillwood Court, focusing on trenchless technologies such as cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) and geopolymer lining, with limited excavation as needed. All work must comply with the NASsCO PACP® Reference Manual, OSHA confined space standards, ASTM F1216, and other applicable codes, with inspection and acceptance occurring at the project site. The City requires submission of CCTV inspection videos, NASsCO-certified operator credentials, confined space permits, and a detailed Traffic Control Plan, with all documentation submitted in electronic PDF format adhering to strict naming conventions and file size limitations. Bids must be submitted exclusively through the IONWAVE portal, and all inquiries must be routed through the procurement department. The solicitation mandates full compliance with the Unique Entity ID requirement for all offerors and subcontractors and includes a mandatory 8% Columbia Disadvantaged Business Enterprise participation goal, with corresponding affidavits and good faith effort documentation required. The award will be made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder on a Low Price Technically Acceptable basis, with no formal evaluation factors, weights, or trade-off procedures outlined. Contract execution will occur under a firm-fixed-price structure, with performance measured from the Notice to Proceed to Final Completion, and liquidated damages applicable for delays. All materials must be delivered in original or equivalent packaging, protected from damage and deterioration, and inspected at destination. Though quantities for CIPP liners are listed, pricing data is entirely absent, rendering contract value estimates unavailable. No formal FAR clauses, payment details, COR/COTR/PCO assignments, or accounting identifiers are provided; instead, oversight is conducted by municipal authorities including the Construction Coordinator and Utility Coordinator. Additional submissions such as the LBE Qualification Statement, Mentor-Protégé agreements, and subcontractor business records are required if applicable, with hard copies needed for certified seals and embossments.
