Description

The MBTA is seeking a qualified contractor to fabricate and install approximately 2,500 double‑sided bus‑stop signs across the Commonwealth’s bus network. The work includes producing sign assemblies to detailed MassDOT and FHWA specifications, providing all hardware and foundations, installing the signs within a 12‑month window, and delivering geotagged “as‑built” documentation. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive, eligible bidder and requires extensive insurance, prevailing‑wage compliance, and Buy‑America certification. • Scope: design‑approved sign fabrication (≈2,500 units), site installation, and post‑installation documentation. • Technical requirements: .080 grade aluminum panels, ASTM Type III reflectivity, stainless‑steel hardware, specific color standards, and 50‑ft rail‑proximity endorsement on liability coverage. • Contract terms: 5 % bid bond, 50 % payment bond, 100 % performance bond, 1‑year (extendable to 5‑year) warranty, and compliance with MBTA insurance and prevailing‑wage schedules.

Budget estimate

$300,000 – $400,000

The SOW document lists a detailed cost estimate of roughly $336,000 for materials, labor, and sundries. Assuming typical contractor margins (10‑20 %) and possible change orders, the expected contract value is likely between $300,000 and $400,000. The low end reflects a tight margin and minimal change orders; the high end accounts for higher labor rates, inflation, and optional warranty extensions.
