Doolan Road Sight Distance Improvement Project

Delaware Township in Pike County, Pennsylvania, is soliciting bids for the Thiel Road 2026 Paving Project, with bids due by 1:00 p.m. on Wednesday, June 10, 2026, and public opening at the Board of Supervisors meeting that evening at 7:00 p.m. All solicitation details, including bid documents, are accessible free of charge via PennBid™, where inquiries must be submitted no later than June 3, 2026. Bids must be secured with a certified check or surety bond amounting to at least 10% of the bid total, and the successful bidder must provide a performance and payment bond totaling 100% of the contract amount, along with proof of workers’ compensation insurance. The Township reserves the right to reject any or all bids, waive minor irregularities, and hold bids for up to 60 days post-opening to evaluate bidder qualifications and ensure compliance. The project is governed by Pennsylvania Department of Transportation Publication 408 standards, and all work must be performed on-site at the designated location in Pike County. The award will be made to the lowest responsible bidder under a lowest price technically acceptable model, with no trade-off process for non-price factors. Contractors must comply with federal Equal Employment Opportunity requirements, prohibiting discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, or handicap. Payment will be processed through AIA Form G702 and G703 applications, reviewed by the Engineer, with no formal contracting officer, COR, or COTR designated. The contract does not reference federal accounting codes, bar-coding, military packaging standards, or specific delivery terms, and while labor rates are listed, there is no formal line-item pricing structure or published estimated contract value. Substitutions for materials require prior written approval by the Engineer, and all subcontractors must adhere to the same terms as the prime contractor. The contractor assumes full responsibility for inspections, testing, corrective work, and compliance with environmental regulations, including immediate cessation of work and reporting upon discovery of hazardous materials. No small business, socioeconomic, or special security clearances are required, and the contract form follows municipal construction practices rather than federal Acquisition Regulation structures.
