Pavement Construction – Asphalt or Concrete Paving

This contract involves the installation of multiple pavement layers for roadways, including the base, binder, and surface courses, utilizing materials that meet specified compliance standards. A critical component of the agreement is the application of payment adjustments based on the smoothness of the completed roadway, which is measured using a Road Profiler device to determine the International Roughness Index (IRI). This performance-based approach ensures that the finished pavement meets quality thresholds for surface evenness, with financial incentives or penalties tied to these measurements. Issued by the Tennessee Department of Transportation, the work is designated as a subcontract under the NAICS code 237310, indicating a focus on highway and street construction. The project location is in Knox, Tennessee, and the contract was posted and due for response on May 8, 2026. The subcontract reflects an emphasis on achieving high construction standards while incorporating objective metrics for assessing pavement smoothness, facilitating accountability and quality assurance throughout the project’s completion.
