THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

Middlebury received three bids for construction of the Exchange Street multi-use path, with Waters Excavation submitting the low bid at $782,694. After reviewing bid discrepancies and consulting VTrans and state specifications, the Infrastructure Committee now recommends awarding the contract to Waters Excavation.

What it means for vendors

With award imminent, the path project is moving into construction, creating near-term needs for materials, traffic control services, and potential change-order or adjacent project work along Exchange Street.

Background

Bowman provided engineer recommendation; concern noted over Traffic Control cost item but TCP ultimately required prior to construction, not award.

Questions about this project

What is a pre-RFP?

A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Town of Middlebury's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
