Request for prices for delivery of Type 1 aggregate to four locations within Region 3, Section 6. Specific quantities and locations are detailed in the Scope of Work. Quotes are due by July 15, 2026. Delivery must be coordinated with CDOT, with 5 days advance notice. Certified weight tickets and daily truck tares lists are required with each load. CDOT will take acceptance samples. Invoices will be checked against CDOT lab acceptance test results. Award will be to the responsible respondent whose acceptable quote is most advantageous to the state, with price-cost as the primary consideration.
Quotes must be submitted no later than Wednesday, July 15, 2026. Delivery start date is to be indicated on the price submission form, with a desired contract start date of Monday, August 3, 2026, or July 27, 2026, if suppliers can accommodate.
Payment will be made when the entire quantity has been stockpiled, tested, accepted, and all delivery weigh tickets, scale certification, and truck lists are submitted. Invoices corresponding to failed CDOT lab acceptance results may be delayed up to 10 working days. Payment shall be from certified weight tickets.
This solicitation and the resulting contracts or purchase orders will be awarded to the responsible respondents whose acceptable quote is determined to be the most advantageous to the state, with price-cost being the primary consideration. Other considerations may include, but are not limited to, sample quality, and lead time for delivery.
The awarded respondent must provide proof of good standing with the Colorado Secretary of State and an insurance certificate documenting required coverage prior to contract execution.
Calculating and/or deducting liquidated damages based on the vendor failing to meet specifications with certain deliveries does not prevent CDOT from canceling the contract or purchase order if subsequent acceptance samples fail to meet specifications.
Acceptance samples will be taken by CDOT forces at the times and locations of delivery. CDOT will take a minimum of one representative sample per location at a frequency of 1 per 200 tons of delivered chips, or fraction thereof. The vendor agrees that such CDOT sampling and testing procedures are a reasonable means to determine compliance with the specifications.
A quote received after the submission deadline may be rejected. Failure to submit pricing utilizing the price submission form will result in the solicitation response being considered nonresponsive. Any acceptance that fails to meet gradation specifications may be cause for immediate cancellation of the contract/purchase order for that location.
