Description
The City of Lancaster is seeking competitive sealed bids to design and construct a new sanitary pump station and associated force main at Lawrence Street. The contract is a lump‑sum “general contract” that covers all civil, structural, mechanical, electrical, and instrumentation work required to install a submersible pump system, including site preparation, excavation, backfill, foundation options, pipe installation, and related utilities. Bidders must submit a complete bid package that includes a bid form, guaranty, qualification statements, and various affidavits, and must comply with Ohio prevailing‑wage rules and DBE/WBE participation goals (though later addenda removed mandatory DBE clauses). The project must be substantially completed by early October 2027.
• Construction of a new submersible pump station and force main to convey wastewater to the Lawrence Street WPCF.
• Civil works: excavation, shoring, backfill, optional helical‑pier or spread‑footing foundations, and surface restoration.
• Electrical/Instrumentation: supply and install control panels, VFDs, PLC/SCADA systems, and flow‑measurement devices, with strict qualification requirements for the I&C supplier.
• Mandatory pre‑bid site visit and a strict bid submission deadline; extensive documentation required for contractor qualification and compliance.
