ITS Miscellaneous On-Call Construction
The Charlotte Department of Transportation (CDOT) wishes to prepare a three-year contract to include miscellaneous repair or relocation of conduit, fiber, aluminum poles, traffic management cameras, and other facilities within the City’s Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) throughout the Charlotte service area. The increase in telecom and development related construction throughout Charlotte has put the ITS infrastructure in substantial risk of being damaged and/or the need to be relocated. The work under this contract will supplement the city’s workforce in making repairs or relocations. There may also be small project work not related to repairs. Work may include either underground at varying depths or aerial work at varying heights to install conduit and fiber optic cable. Because of the unknown scope of each repair, this is a Task Based contract. The Contractor’s Superintendent may be required to respond and be on site within 3 to 6 hours of being called to evaluate the conditions and develop an agreed upon plan with the city. Contractor work crews may be required to respond and be on site within 3 to 6 hours of the meeting with the Contractor’s Superintendent and the issuance of the Task Order.
While it is anticipated that the majority of the work will be able to be performed during normal working hours, there may be instances where overtime work is needed, or work on nights and/or weekends or holidays. Separate pay items have been included to cover these instances. Due to the urgent nature of some of these repairs, work in inclement weather may be required.
