RFB-605-2600000682-3 | Polypropylene Barrier Wall Construction Districts 1-10

The contract solicitation RFB-605-2600000682-3 issued by the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet Division of Maintenance calls for the construction of polypropylene barrier walls across Districts 1 through 10 to combat bank erosion along state roadways. This is a master agreement with variable order volumes per district, requiring vendors to supply prefabricated 2-foot and 3-foot polypropylene bags, Class B concrete, installation equipment, on-site technicians, CUYD material, and TON disposal services—all to be delivered F.O.B. destination freight prepaid. Performance is scheduled to begin no earlier than September 1, 2026, and extend through August 31, 2027, with potential for four one-year extensions and up to 90 additional days with mutual consent. Delivery locations are defined by individual Transportation Delivery Orders, with installation activities requiring compliance with KYTC Standard Specifications, MUTCD guidelines, and approved TTC drawings. Bidders must submit pricing through the Kentucky Vendor Self Service system by the deadline of July 22, 2026, and are evaluated using a trade-off method where price carries 85% weight, experience accounts for 10%, and response time contributes 5% toward the total score. The contract mandates strict compliance with state-specific affidavits covering employee and subcontractor employment status, AI usage, non-discrimination, tax exemption, and the prohibition of illegal immigration—all notarized and verified. Contractors must hold a Kentucky Vendor Code, demonstrate compliance with state employment and tax laws to qualify as resident bidders, and maintain insurance with AM Best B+ rated carriers. All work is subject to government inspection and acceptance at the delivery point, and the Commonwealth retains audit rights over records. No federal FAR clauses apply; instead, contractual obligations are governed entirely by Kentucky statutes and administrative regulations. Payment is to be processed by the Division of Maintenance at the Frankfort address upon receipt and approval of invoices containing proper contract and line-item details.
