City of Salem, Virginia * RFP #2027-014 * On Demand Paving Services
I. PURPOSE
The City of Salem (the "City") is seeking proposals from qualified contractors to establish term
contracts, through competitive negotiation, for on demand asphalt paving and asphalt patching
services. Work will be performed on an "as needed" basis at City streets, parking lots, trails, and
other City-owned facilities and properties in and around the City of Salem.
The goal of this RFP is to establish contracts with qualified Contractors who agree to provide
services in a timely manner, thereby reducing the City's cost and time associated with advertising
and developing multiple Invitations to Bid (ITBs) and improving the City's overall efficiency in
obtaining paving services.
The City intends to award contracts to more than one qualified Contractor. Award of a contract will
not guarantee that a Contractor will perform any or all projects for the City. Rather, it will entitle the
Contractor, when requested by the City, to submit a price quote for specific projects. No individual
project issued under this contract shall exceed $500,000.
The City makes no guarantee of any minimum or maximum amount of work. Award of a contract
does not guarantee that any Purchase Agreement will be issued, and Contractors shall not be
entitled to compensation for lack of work.
II. BACKGROUND
The City of Salem is an independent city encompassing approximately fourteen (14) square miles,
nestled in the heart of Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains within the Roanoke Region. Conveniently
located along Interstate 81, Salem is home to approximately 25,346 residents and is part of the
larger Roanoke Metropolitan Area, which has a regional population of approximately 313,786.
Throughout the year, the City frequently requires asphalt paving and patching services for repairs,
maintenance, renovations, and other related work on City streets, parking lots, trails, and other
paved areas at various City-owned facilities and properties. In many instances, the scope or
complexity of these projects exceeds the capabilities of City staff. This contract will be used to
engage qualified Contractors, allowing the City to expedite project delivery and efficiently address
these needs.
III. SCOPE OF WORK
The selected Contractor(s) shall provide all supervision, labor, tools, materials, supplies, equipment,
transportation, record documentation, and other associated work necessary to perform asphalt
paving and asphalt patching services for the City on an "as needed" basis. Demonstration of the
Offeror's capability to perform the services described in this Section is a material component of this
solicitation. At a minimum, the scope of work shall include the following:
A. Service Categories
Offerors may propose on one or both of the following service categories and shall indicate their
selection on Attachment C:
* Asphalt Paving
* Asphalt Patching
Offerors do not need to be able to provide both services, but must be able to provide professional
expertise in each service category for which they desire consideration for selection.
B. General Requirements
* Services shall be provided in a competent manner that maintains the quality of City operations
and minimizes the interruption of City services.

* No single project issued under this contract shall exceed $500,000.
C. Project Requests and Work Authorization
* The City will periodically request quotes or proposals from Contractors for specific projects on
an "as needed" basis. Contractors will generally be assigned work on a rotational basis within
each service category; however, the City reserves the right to assign work outside of rotation
based on availability, performance, pricing, or the City's best interest. For any given project, the
City may request quotes from one or more Contractors.
* The City will provide a scope of work for each project, including materials, equipment, and
installation requirements, and any technical specifications or drawings that apply.
* Contractors will be requested to submit quotes on a Fixed Price (FP), Unit Price (UP), or Time
and Materials (T&M) basis, depending on the nature of the work, and to identify any materials or
items with extended lead times. Time and Materials work shall be billed at the rates established
in Attachment B, and a not-to-exceed amount shall be established for every Time and Materials
Purchase Agreement.
* The City reserves the right to request a breakdown of material and labor costs on any fixed
price quote. If requested, the Contractor agrees to provide a breakdown of all costs.
* Contractors may rely on personal inspection and/or contact the City to obtain access to existing
drawings. It remains the Contractor's responsibility to field-verify all measurements and site
conditions prior to submitting any quote. The City reserves the right to furnish any or all
materials to the Contractor for any given project and invoice the Contractor accordingly.
* When requested, the Contractor shall submit a detailed plan of operation for a project,
addressing personnel assigned, Contractor inspection and quality review procedures, warranty
provisions, and a schedule outlining each phase of the project from start to completion,
including any follow-up work. The City may compare the Contractor's plan to its own internal
project plans to determine whether to complete the work using City resources or the
Contractor's services.
* All work shall be performed pursuant to a written Purchase Agreement issued by the City
defining the scope of work, location, schedule, and compensation method. No work shall begin
until a Purchase Agreement has been executed and approved by the City. The Contractor shall
obtain written approval from the City before performing any work that would exceed the
Purchase Agreement amount.
* The Contractor shall make site visits and schedule meetings as needed to clarify the scope of
work, and shall provide a bi-weekly status report of all active, pending, and closed projects. At a
minimum, the report shall provide the City's assigned project number, descriptive title, current
working estimate, start date, estimated/actual completion dates, percent complete, and a
remarks field.
* The City reserves the right to complete any project with its own forces or another contract, or to
cancel a procurement at any time. The City further reserves the right to terminate any contract if
a Contractor does not submit a quote on any project over a one-year period, or if a Contractor
consistently fails to meet established or agreed-upon completion dates.
