Site work for a water / sewer project in Pass Christian, Mississippi. Completed plans call for site work for a water / sewer project.

Bids are invited for the furnishing of materials, equipment, labor, and incidentals necessary to remove and replace, with new, electrical and controls and to construct structural steel control structures and access platforms at five (5) of the City of Pass Christian's sewage lift stations. The platforms will allow access to the elevated electrical and controls at the lift stations. The replacement controls, the main disconnect, manual transfer switch, SCADA controls and power meter base, etc. will be required on a new structure intended to be elevated not less than 6' above existing ground level, as provided for on the plans. The electrical service shall be extended from the existing pole to below ground to the respective structures where they will be mounted at the appropriate location and elevation. Adjacent to the elevated controls at each station will include a structural steel access platform (i.e., 9'L x 5'W) with stairs mounted on a concrete pad. Contractor shall coordinate the relocation of the existing power pole at each station with the local power company, if needed to erect the new structures. Existing electrical components removed from each site shall be delivered to the City's Water Operator's office located at 396 Clark Avenue, Pass Christian, MS. Minority and women's business enterprises are solicited to bid on this contract as prime contractors and are encouraged to make inquiries regarding potential subcontracting opportunities and equipment, material and/or supply needs. All bidders must make positive efforts to use small and minority owned business and women business enterprises. A certified check or bank draft payable to the order of City of Pass Christian, Mississippi, negotiable U.S. Government bonds (at par value), or a satisfactory Bid Bond executed by the Bidder and an acceptable surety licensed under the laws of the State of Mississippi, in an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the total bid for "ELEVATE AND REPLACE ELECTRICAL AND CONTROLS AT CITY LIFT STATIONS" shall be submitted with each bid. The Bidder must indicate his Certificate of Responsibility Number on outside of sealed proposal as required by Mississippi Law. For the purposes of submitting a bid, the Bidder shall possess a current commercial contractor's license from the Mississippi State Board of Contractors. The license shall be in the correct classification of licensure that will allow the perspective bidder to perform the work described in the bid documents. The City of Pass Christian, Mississippi, reserves the right to consider the following relevant factors in addition to the contract price in determining the lowest and best bid: bidder's skill and business judgment, his experience and his facilities for carrying out the contract, his previous conduct under other contracts and the quality of previous work, as well as his pecuniary ability, honesty, and integrity. The City also reserves the right to reject any or all bids or to waive any informalities in the bidding. Awarding public contracts to non-resident Bidders will be on the same basis as the non-resident bidder's state awards contracts to Mississippi Contractors bidding under similar circumstances. In order to ensure that Mississippi's so-called Golden Rule is followed, state law requires a non-resident bidder to attach to his bid a copy of his resident state's current laws pertaining to such state's treatment of non-resident contractors. Bids may be held by the City of Pass Christian, Mississippi, for a period not to exceed ninety (90) days from the date of the opening of bids for the purpose of reviewing the bids and investigating the qualifica- tions of Bidders, prior to awarding of the Contract. Upon award of the Contract, the Notice to Proceed may not be issued for a period of an additional 90 calendar days, if needed, due to the necessity to maintain access for the adjacent businesses through the intersection of East North Street and Menge Avenue. ** Doc info : The cost of bid documents is non-refundable and bid documents must be purchased through the website.
