  • Solicitation is coded under NAICS 238990 (All Other Specialty Trade Contractors). Confirm your business is registered under this NAICS and meets the SBA size standard (currently $22M average annual receipts). The work is Class/Item 91371 — Highway and Road Maintenance and Repair.

  • No set-aside is indicated for this solicitation. This is a Texas ESBD (state-level) local-let contract — not a federal set-aside. All qualified, TxDOT-prequalified contractors may bid.

    Use the tool
  • This is a Texas state solicitation (TX ESBD / TxDOT), not a federal SAM.gov procurement. A SAM.gov/CAGE registration is likely NOT required, but verify if any federal funding flows through this contract. Texas HUB registration or TxDOT vendor registration may apply instead.

  • Specific bond percentages and amounts are not stated in the posting — they are typically detailed in the full letting documents available at txdot.gov (Solicitation 6501-19-001_0726). At an estimated value of $857,600, ensure your surety line is sufficient and obtain the full letting package to confirm exact requirements.

  • Insurance limits are not stated in the solicitation description. Download the full letting package from txdot.gov to find TxDOT's standard insurance requirements for maintenance contracts of this type and value.

  • No formal past performance submission is described, but TxDOT prequalification (required to bid local-let contracts) inherently evaluates your experience. Ensure you have documented experience with metal beam guard fence repair and highway maintenance work at this scale (~$857K).

    Use the tool
  • Davis-Bacon Act typically applies to federally funded highway projects. If federal funds are involved in this TxDOT contract, certified payroll and prevailing wage rates will apply. Confirm funding source in the full letting documents.

    Use the tool
  • No site visit is mentioned in the solicitation posting. Check the full letting documents for any pre-bid meeting or site inspection requirements for this US 287 / Wichita County location.
