- The notice contains an explicit instruction: “Do Not Use COMMBUYS to Bid on this Project.” Ensure your submission follows the alternative process specified in the attached bid documents.
- SBPP Eligible: YES—confirm any SBPP documentation or eligibility proof required in the bid package.
- Use the bid documents to identify pay items and measurement/payment terms; align pricing to expected civil quantities for shared-use path work.
- Include risk-based contingencies only where permitted/appropriate under the bid format; avoid deviations from required bid schedules.
- Consider specialty subs aligned to shared-use path work as indicated by the bid package (e.g., paving, striping/signage, erosion control/landscaping), while keeping prime control over grading/earthwork and overall schedule.
- Submission risk: bidders who submit through COMMBUYS may be deemed non-responsive due to the explicit instruction not to use COMMBUYS.
- Scope ambiguity risk: the title truncates (“along Mo”), so limits and technical requirements must be confirmed in the attached documents before estimating.
- Administrative risk: solicitation number, notice type, and place of performance fields are blank in the notice—key details likely reside only in the attachment.
