Victoria County — CSJ 0913-27-108 — July 2026 Letting — State-Let Construction

The contract pertains to a state-let construction project in Victoria County, Texas, under the solicitation number 0913-27-108, with a letting date of July 2026, administered by the Texas Department of Transportation. The work encompasses the installation, testing, and relocation of vehicle detection systems, traffic signal hardware, pavement markings, and associated electrical and civil infrastructure, including drilling shafts for poles, removal of existing concrete structures, and installation of pedestrian signals and push buttons. All work must comply with TxDOT standards, the National Electrical Code, NEMA specifications, and other referenced technical standards such as ASTM B117 for corrosion resistance and IESNA LM-80-08 for LED performance. The project’s performance is site-specific, occurring at multiple locations along US 77 and BU 775, with final acceptance dependent upon a 30- to 90-day operational test period following installation, during which system uptime must exceed 97% and any failure must be corrected and retested for 30 consecutive days without defect. The contract includes detailed pricing for line items covering everything from galvanized bolts and flexible base materials to traffic signal assemblies, cable runs, and pavement markings, with a total estimated value of approximately $3.57 million, though one line item carries a negative price that may indicate a credit or data anomaly. Special contractual requirements mandate compliance with Texas cybersecurity standards including protection of personal identifying information, immediate reporting of security breaches, and adherence to nondiscrimination and equal employment opportunity policies under federal executive orders, including the requirement to maintain EEO-1 reporting and implement on-the-job training for underrepresented groups. The prime contractor must perform at least 30% of the contract value using its own workforce, and all subcontracting must include nondiscrimination clauses. Wage compliance is governed by Davis-Bacon and Related Act requirements, with certified payroll records subject to retention for three years and available for audit. Although no formal FAR clauses, evaluation factors, or standard contract administration details like payment offices or COR information are provided, the contract enforces strict inspection and acceptance protocols tied to real-world performance, with all testing conducted on-site and overseen by the Engineer. Submission requires adherence to TxDOT’s prescribed bid forms, and responses must be delivered by the deadline posted without exception, with no formal electronic portal specified for submission.
