Call 001 612187-134319The solicitation seeks a Design-Build contractor for the Bridge Replacement, C-13-038, I-391 over ST 116 in Chicopee, Massachusetts, with a projected contract value of $145.7 million. The project involves the demolition of the existing bridge structure, construction of a new superstructure and substructure, highway reconstruction including storm drainage, signing, and temporary lighting, along with extensive temporary works for traffic management during phased construction. The work is governed by the MassDOT Standard Specifications for Highways and Bridges, 2026 Edition, and must comply with AASHTO and Federal Highway Administration standards. The design life for new bridges is set at 75 years with a minimum service life of 100 years, and pavement must last at least 40 years. Proposals must be submitted in two distinct parts: a Technical Proposal capped at 40 pages and a Price Proposal delivered through the Bid Express portal. The Technical Proposal must include detailed plans for project management, quality control systems, construction staging, civil/traffic design, environmental compliance, utilities coordination, and geotechnical considerations, with evaluation weighted heavily toward technical merit at 65%, while project management and coordination account for the remaining 35%. The award will be determined by the lowest Overall Value Rating—calculated by dividing the total price by the cumulative technical score—ensuring a best-value selection rather than lowest bid. All proposers are required to submit a 5% bid bond, demonstrate the capacity to provide 100% performance and payment bonds, and comply with strict organizational conflict of interest disclosures through Attachment F. Proposals must include fully completed forms for the letter of transmittal, stipend agreement, design cost statement, conflict of interest disclosure, ATC rules acknowledgment, and escrow documentation.
