Snow Plowing Services - Citywide - 2

The City of Bridgeport is soliciting bids from qualified contractors to provide snow plowing, sanding, and hauling services on city streets, municipal parking lots, and schools for the 2026‑2027 winter season. The contract will be awarded on a unit‑price basis, creating a pre‑approved on‑call list of local vendors. Contractors must be licensed in Connecticut, carry required insurance, and provide detailed vehicle information (type, make, model, plow/sander equipment, condition). The City will issue purchase orders on an as‑needed basis; contractors are responsible for fuel, equipment breakdowns, and any damage caused. No bid bond is required, but a Certificate of Insurance and various compliance forms must be submitted. The award may be split among multiple vendors and is evaluated on best‑value criteria, not solely lowest price. • Scope: Snow plowing, sanding, hauling for streets, parking lots, schools (as‑needed) • Contract type: Unit‑price, on‑call list for 2026‑2027 winter season • Required licenses: Connecticut contractor license, SAM/DUNS/Tax IDs • Insurance: Workers’ Comp, Commercial General Liability ($1‑2 M), Auto Liability ($1 M), Umbrella ($2‑5 M) • Submission: Electronic via OpenGov portal (or paper in exceptional cases) by 2:00 pm Nov 17 2026 • Evaluation: Best‑value (price, response time, equipment, record) • Duration: Approximately one winter season (≈ 6 months)
