INVITATION TO BID
Sealed bid proposals will be received via courier to the Alabama State Port Authority, 1400 Alabama State
Docks Blvd, Room 216, Administration Building, Mobile, AL 36602 by 1:00 PM, on Wednesday, April 24,
2024. Sealed bid proposals can also be hand delivered from 1:45 PM to 2:00 PM, on Wednesday, April
24, 2024, to the Alabama State Port Authority (ASPA) in the International Trade Center building, 250 North
Water Street, 1st Floor Killian Room, Mobile, AL. Faxed or electronic submitted bids will not be accepted.
The work consists principally of providing bonds, plant, labor, materials, equipment, and supervision
necessary for the hydraulic maintenance dredging of various areas at the Upper Harbor facilities in Mobile,
AL. The scope of work performed will include maintaining the water depth shown in the contract
drawings. This work will be performed as per high frequency hydrographic surveying at MLLW, 1929.
Dredging equipment must be able to handle a discharge pipe no smaller than 18-inch diameter and no
larger than 27-inch diameter for ASPA spoil area, Mud Lakes. The anticipated maximum dredge depth for
the upper harbor berths is -42’.
This work will consist of dredging the Upper Harbor facilities per the items listed in the Schedule of Prices.
Annualized cubic yards are not a guarantee of the amount of contractual work; this is only a basis for bid
evaluation.
Dredging will be performed on an on-call basis; exact times to be determined by ASPA. The Main Docks
are generally dredged on an annual frequency in early Winter (November/December). It is anticipated
that the dredging of the Rail Ferry, AIT Dock, and Blakely Terminal be performed in conjunction with the
Main Docks event. The grain elevator berth may require off-cycle dredging in mid to late summer
(June/July) if the winter survey dictates. The dredge frequency and timing previously described is to
provide the Contractor with an estimated amount of effort required for this contract for scheduling.
Dredge tasks may be requested more frequently than previously described.
For bid analysis, it is anticipated that all dredge material will be discharged into the Mud Lakes disposal
area. A submerged line must be placed across the Mobile River Channel for Main Docks, Rail Ferry, and
AIT Dock dredging events.
This initial, one-year contract may be renewed up to four (4) times for a total of five (5) years from the
original contract. Contract renewal will be based upon mutual agreement between the Owner and
Contractor. Pricing will be re-evaluated and adjusted based on the Consumer Price Index established by
the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics at the time of contract renewal. The February 2024 CPI for
“Transportation services” is 9.9% (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics).
The bidder must also be flexible with the vessel/barge traffic with no interruptions to the course of
business. The awarded bidder must be ready to start within seven (7) days of notification.
Specifications, proposal forms, bid and performance bond forms, and plans are available on the Alabama
Port Authority website at www.alports.com. You may contact the ASPA project manager, Sean Kelly, for
additional information at sean.kelly@alports.com or (251) 441-7180. Prospective bidders may coordinate
