2025-008 Waterline Construction Materials for Franklin Crossroads Waterline Replacement Bid Tabulation

This opportunity concerns the procurement of all material‑only items needed for the Franklin Crossroads water‑line replacement project. The Hardin County Water District No. 2 is evaluating bids from five vendors for both domestic (BABA‑compliant) and imported pipe, fittings, and related components. The bid tabulation shows total material costs ranging from roughly $252 K to $265 K, with no installation services included. Vendors compete on identical line‑item quantities, and the district will select the lowest‑priced or most compliant offer. • Scope: Supply of PVC, ductile‑iron, and steel pipe, plus fittings, bends, tees, reducers, caps, gland packs, and hydrant adapters—materials‑only, no labor. • Vendors: Hayes, Ferguson, Core & Main, EJC, and WinWater (both domestic and import schedules). • Value: Total material spend estimates between $252,196 and $264,754, indicating a mid‑size procurement for a water‑utility district. • Compliance: Separate schedules for BABA‑compliant (domestic) and imported items, allowing the district to assess Buy‑American requirements. • Timeline: Bids were due and opened on November 5, 2025; no further dates (e.g., award or start) are provided.
