Description

The Iowa Department of Transportation is seeking competitive quotes to design, furnish, and install a new concrete loading dock at its Ames South lot (800 Lincoln Way, Ames, IA). The scope includes removal of existing railroad ties, earthwork, all concrete formwork, reinforcement, pouring, finishing, and related site work, performed under direct DOT supervision. The project must comply with Iowa Administrative Code 761‑20, use 4000 psi cast‑in‑place concrete, and meet specific material and quality‑assurance standards. Bidders must be registered with the Iowa Division of Labor and be able to provide performance and payment bonds for contracts of $25,000 or more. The contract is expected to run from early April to the end of June 2027.

Budget estimate

$100,000 – $300,000

The solicitation does not disclose a contract value, but a performance bond is required for contracts $25,000 or higher. Based on the size of the dock, demolition of railroad ties, earthwork, and high‑strength concrete, a typical comparable DOT loading‑dock construction in Iowa ranges from $100 k to $300 k. Therefore, the expected contractor earnings are estimated in that ballpark.
