Shoulder Backing Repair Project

The Shoulder Backing Repair Project, solicited under number 4710 by the California Department of General Services, Construction Division, requires the furnishing of all labor, materials, equipment, and incidental work necessary to complete roadway restoration activities along White Rock Road and Scott Road in Sacramento County. The scope includes rebuilding eroded shoulders and roadside ditches, reconstructing failing roadway segments, replacing a 12-inch corrugated steel pipe culvert on White Rock Road, and performing related excavation, material placement, and pavement restoration using AB Class 2 aggregate and HMA Type A. The project is structured with a base bid covering White Rock Road Location 1 and two optional alternatives—Alternative A for White Rock Road Location 2 and Alternative B for Scott Road—with all work required to be completed within thirty working days from project commencement, during which no excavation or soil disturbance may occur prior to the official start of the timeline. Quantities listed in the specifications are approximations only, and the County retains full discretion to adjust actual quantities performed. All work must strictly conform to the Sacramento County Standard Construction Specifications, Special Provisions, and applicable federal, state, and local regulations, including compliance with Buy America requirements for steel and iron, prohibition of certain telecommunications and video surveillance equipment, and adherence to environmental and safety standards per 23 CFR Part 635 and other applicable laws. The contract mandates payment and performance bonds issued by an approved corporate surety, a bid bond for submission, and compliance with insurance requirements including general liability, automobile liability, workers compensation, and contractor’s pollution liability. Contractors must hold a valid California contractor’s license and be registered with the California Department of Industrial Relations under Labor Code Section 1725.5, and must submit certifications regarding debarment, suspension, and lobbying activities via SAM.gov, including UEI and legal entity name verification. Certified payrolls must be submitted weekly for any work subject to Davis-Bacon requirements, and subcontractor payment reports using Exhibit 9-P are required by the 15th of each month following payment. Quality control is the contractor’s sole responsibility, requiring at-cost testing and inspection of materials and workmanship, with the County conducting independent Quality Assurance Program sampling. Non-conforming work must be removed and replaced at the contractor’s expense, and substitutions require written proof of equivalent performance. The County will award the contract to the lowest responsible and responsive bidder based on the total bid amount including base and all alternatives, with bid submissions required electronically via the SACCOUNTYEBIDS
