Anti-Vehicle Gate and Bollard Construction Service

The government authority located in Middle River, Maryland is seeking anti-vehicle gate and bollard construction services to secure a facility entrance. The agency needs to replace existing perimeter barriers with a more robust, controlled access system while maintaining continuous security throughout the construction process. To address this need, the agency requires a contractor to develop at least three proof of concept options before beginning physical work. The scope of work covers the removal of approximately thirty-two linear feet of existing chain-link fence, including posts and foundations, and the removal of approximately thirty-two linear feet of existing cable anti-ram crash barrier. The contractor must remove and properly dispose of the existing entrance subgrade, subbase, and asphalt pavement. Following removal, the agency requires the installation of sixteen removable and lockable anti-vehicle bollards and new manual double-swing gates to accommodate a thirty-two-linear foot opening. The project also requires grading and paving of the entrance area, bonding and grounding for the new gate installation, and the installation of crosswalk pavement markings. The contractor must restripe parking spots in the area of the new pavement, install street lighting to illuminate the gate area, and restore any disturbed landscaping or hardscape features. Tree trimming may be performed if required to complete the scope of work, subject to coordination and approval from the agency project manager. The agency is soliciting proposals to determine the budget for this project. This procurement is set aside entirely for small businesses, and eligibility is restricted to onshore, United States organizations. All performance of the work must take place onsite at the Middle River facility. No specific key dates or evaluation criteria are detailed in the agency announcement.
