PennDOT District 11 On-Call Graffiti Removal Services

PennDOT District 11 is seeking on-call graffiti removal for state-maintained facilities across three Pennsylvania counties. - Government buyer: Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT), District 11. - Service requested: Districtwide, as-needed graffiti removal at PennDOT facilities on and near state highways in Allegheny, Beaver, and Lawrence Counties, with work concentrated primarily on bridge structures in Allegheny County. - Work and methods: Remove graffiti from metal, concrete, stone, wood, block, brick, and other surfaces using approved repainting, chemical-cleaning, or propelled-abrasive methods. Finished surfaces must blend with their surroundings; the contractor must repair any damage caused by cleaning at no additional cost. - Contractor responsibilities: Provide all labor, materials, tools, equipment, insurance, worker-safety measures, and traffic control. Payment is hourly; same-day travel between work sites is payable, but travel at the start and end of the day is not. Separate payment provisions apply to emergency mobilization, arrow boards, and flagmen. - Response expectations: Normal call-outs require mobilization within three business days; emergencies require a response by the next calendar day. Work generally must be completed within 15 business days of notification. The work statement also describes starting within 72 hours and completing assigned sites, so call-out timing should be confirmed with PennDOT. - Eligibility: The procurement is restricted to businesses with valid Pennsylvania Department of General Services (DGS) small-business certification. The materials identify no OEMs, product brands, or prospective private vendors. - Term: The documents conflict on renewal structure. The initial summary describes a two-year base term with two two-year renewals and one one-year renewal; attachment materials describe a two-year term with two one-year renewals, while the terms allow up to two additional one-year renewals and a possible extension of up to three months. Renewals are subject to Department approval; attachment materials mention possible increases of up to 3% per renewal term.
