IFB 160846 - Equipment with Operator

The Virginia Department of Transportation is seeking bids for a broad range of construction‑related equipment with qualified operators to support projects in Russell County (Lebanon Residency of the Bristol District). The solicitation lists numerous specific equipment types—from tractors and backhoes to concrete mixers and water trucks—each requiring an experienced operator and, for many items, a minimum quantity. This opportunity is essentially a rental‑and‑operator contract for short‑term use of heavy construction machinery. • Equipment includes agricultural/construction tractors (50‑130 HP), backhoes, loaders, excavators, dump trucks, and specialized units such as concrete mixers, water trucks, and vacuum excavators. • Each piece of equipment must be supplied with a qualified operator; many line items require multiple units (e.g., two backhoes, five tandem dump trucks). • The contract is scoped for the Russell County area and will be awarded to a vendor that can provide the full complement of listed machinery and operators on the required schedule.
