CITY OF OSHKOSH REQUEST FOR QUOTATIONS
FOR SNOW AND ICE REMOVAL
Work Summary
The City of Oshkosh is soliciting Quotations for the periodic removal of snow and
ice from sidewalks and handicap ramps/crosswalks adjacent to private properties and
over railroad crossings within the municipal boundaries. The CITY is seeking someone
for a one (1) winter season commitment, starting immediately for the Winter 2012/2013
season. City Ordinances require that property owners keep their public sidewalks clear of
snow and ice. When property owners fail to keep their public sidewalks clear of snow
and ice, then the CITY is allowed to clear these sidewalks for the property owners, at
their expense, for the benefit of the public that may use the sidewalks. Quotations are
due to the City of Oshkosh's Purchasing Department by 10:00 A.M. on November 1,
2012.
Cleaning the public sidewalks adjacent to private properties will represent the
majority of snow and ice removal work pursuant to this Contract. Also included within
this Contract is the snow and ice removal on sidewalks at railroad crossings. The City of
Oshkosh does not guarantee any particular amount of work will be offered during the
term of this contract. The work required for this Contract depends on the weather and
depends on the number of property owners who fail to clear their sidewalk. For example,
in the Winter 2010/2011 season there were 725 snow shoveling jobs performed. Plus, the
sidewalks for 13 railroad crossings required cleaning after snowfalls during the Winter
2010/2011 season. However, in the relatively mild Winter 2011/2012 season, there were
only 213 snow shoveling jobs and 13 railroad crossings. The snow shoveling job
example included repeated clearing of certain properties and other random properties that
may have only been cleared once.
Another important task for the successful contractor will be the ability to conduct
themselves in a positive and professional manner when interacting with property owners,
tenants, and other citizens. Contractors must be able to handle the occasional difficult
situation and/or a person who may be unhappy with the snow and ice removal work they
are performing.
Pre-Qualifications
All contractors must be pre-qualified to quote. Pre-qualification for the snow and
ice removal contract shall be completed on the attached forms. Pre-qualification forms
are due to the City of Oshkosh's Purchasing Department by 4:00 P.M. on October
26,2012.
The CONTRACTOR must be qualified to furnish all labor, material, and
equipment to complete the required work. The CITY will review contractor
qualifications based upon experience, available equipment, and their ability to conduct
themselves appropriately with the public.
I:\Engineering\SNOW SHOVELING FOLDERS\Snow Removal Contracts\201212012 Final Specifcations_10-9-12 docx Page 1 of 7
The CITY reserves the right to check references and those who have worked with
the CONTRACTOR in the past, whether or not those persons have been disclosed by the
CONTRACTOR. The CITY reserves the right to perform other background checks on
the CONTRACTOR as allowed by law to verify the ability of the CONTRACTOR to
interact with property owners, tenants, and other citizens in a professional manner.
The CITY reserves the right to inspect the CONTRACTOR's equipment, if the
CITY believes it is necessary, at any time. Inspection may be during the pre-qualification
period, when evaluating the CONTRACTOR's quotation, and during the contract period.
All equipment shall have adequate safety features for working in the right-of-way and be
in good operating condition.
The only equipment that can be used to clear any surface, such as sidewalks,
handicapped ramps, and railroad crossings, are shovels or lightweight pieces of
equipment that will not crack or damage the surface from which the snow or ice is
removed or other property/surfaces. Snow removal equipment shall not disturb or go on
private property. As an example, a light-duty skid steer/small tractor and bucket that
matches the width of the sidewalk may be acceptable. Removing snow and/or ice where
unusual conditions have occurred from a site will generally require the use of a front-end
loader and dump truck.
As part of their pre-qualification, the CONTRACTOR must describe the snow
and ice removal equipment they own or can confirm that they have available and intend
to use to perform these jobs. In particular, the CITY believes that contractors should, at a
minimum, have the following equipment available through ownership or leasing to
successfully carry out the requirements of this work:
a) Tractor/skid steer with appropriate snow removal attachments; and
b) Shovels and snowblower(s); and
c) End loader; and
d) Dump truck.
Quotation Information
CONTRACTOR must provide at least three references of past or current projects
of similar scope to the work described in these Specifications.
Contractors should take into account all of the information and requirements in
this Request for Quotations.
CONTRACTOR must meet all City of Oshkosh insurance requirements and
standard terms and conditions (attached).
CONTRACTOR must furnish all labor, materials, and equipment necessary to
complete the work.
I.',Engineering\SNOW SHOVELING FOLDERS\Snow Removal Contracts\2012\2012 Final Specifications_10-9-12.docx Page 2 of 7
CONTRACTOR shall provide names and telephone numbers of their respective
primary and back-up contact person(s) once the Contract has been established.
All quotations shall include the CONTRACTOR's price for performing the following
tasks:
1. Remove all snow and/or ice at a single location/lot with 0 to 100 feet of
sidewalk(including rock salt/sand application, if necessary)
Removal of all snow and ice at a single location or single lot. Snow and ice
cannot be placed in the street. This price should be calculated with the
understanding that this base point location or lot may contain anywhere from 0
feet to 100 feet of sidewalk. This price should also be calculated with the
understanding that rock salt and/or sand may need to be applied at any time. The
CITY will pay for one (1) trip to the location or lot. Additional trips to the
location or lot because of salting, sanding, or further cleaning will not be
reimbursed by the CITY. If the CONTRACTOR can prove through photographs
that the area was completely cleared before new snow and/or ice accumulates,
then a separate snow shoveling trip may be invoiced.
2. Additional footage beyond 100 feet at same location/lot (including rock
salt/sand application if necessary)
Removal of all snow and ice at a single location or single lot that extends beyond
the base point of 100 feet. Snow and ice cannot be placed in the street. This price
should be calculated for each additional foot of sidewalk. This price should also
be calculated with the understanding that rock salt and/or sand may need to be
applied to each additional foot at any time. The CITY will pay for one (1) trip to
the location or lot. Additional trips to the location or lot because of salting,
sanding, or further cleaning will not be reimbursed by the CITY. If the
CONTRACTOR can prove through photographs that the area was completely
cleared before new snow and/or ice accumulates, then a separate snow shoveling
trip may be invoiced.
3. Apply rock salt/sand only to 0 to 100 feet of sidewalk at a single location/lot
For those instances when snow and/or ice can be removed to the CITY's
satisfaction without shovels or mechanical means, the price for the application at
a single location or single lot of rock salt and/or sand only. This price should be
calculated with the understanding that this base point location or lot may contain
anywhere from 0 feet to 100 feet of sidewalk. The CITY will pay for one (1) trip
to the location or lot. Additional trips to the location or lot for further salting,
sanding, or cleaning will not be reimbursed by the CITY. If the CONTRACTOR
can prove through photographs that the area was completely cleared before new
snow and/or ice accumulates, then a separate snow shoveling trip may be
invoiced.
I:\Engineering\SNOW SHOVELING FOLDERS'Snow Removal Contracts\2012\2012 Final Specifications_10-9-12.docx Page 3 of 7
4. Apply rock salt/sand only to additional footage beyond 100 feet at same
location/lot
For those instances when snow and/or ice can be removed to the CITY's
satisfaction without shovels or mechanical means, the price for application at a
single location or single lot of rock salt and/or sand only. This price should be
calculated for each additional ten (10) feet of sidewalk beyond the base point
distance of 100 feet. The CITY will pay for one (1) trip to the location or lot.
Additional trips to the location or lot for further salting, sanding, or cleaning will
not be reimbursed by the CITY. If the CONTRACTOR can prove through
photographs that the area was completely cleared before new snow and/or ice
accumulates, then a separate snow shoveling trip may be invoiced.
5. Remove all snow and/or ice from all pavement in the handicap
ramp/crosswalk quadrant (including rock salt/sand application if necessary)
Removal of all snow and ice from all of the hard surfaces in handicap ramps and
adjacent pavement, which are typically in the crosswalk quadrant of street
intersections. Snow and ice cannot be placed in the street or be piled to create a
vision obstruction at the corner. CONTRACTOR shall not pile snow higher than
30" above the sidewalk in the intersection and for a distance of 30' from the
intersection. This price should also be calculated with the understanding that rock
salt and/or sand may need to be applied at any time. This price should be
calculated for each sidewalk quadrant (corner) of a street intersection, regardless
of how many ramps or access points are at a quadrant. This task requires clearing
sidewalk and ramp areas leading from the sidewalk to the street. The required
result is clear sidewalk access to and from the street. This task will usually
require the CONTRACTOR to remove snow from the street to achieve the
required result. Therefore, the CONTRACTOR is responsible for snow and ice
removal up to four(4) feet into the street beyond the face of curb. Multiple ramps
in one corner will only be allowed one charge. The snow and ice from both the
initial storm event and also from street plowing operations must be removed. The
CONTRACTOR may have to return to the site and clear it again after City snow
plows have gone through the street. If the CONTRACTOR can prove through
photographs that the area was completely cleared before the snow plow went
through the street, then a separate snow shoveling trip may be invoiced.
6. Remove and dispose of snow from locations where unusual conditions have
occurred
The CONTRACTOR shall designate a rate for removal and disposal of snow
where unusual conditions have occurred, i.e. large piles of snow stockpiled by
property owners that intrudes onto public sidewalks. Snow is to be disposed of at
CONTRACTOR's own dump site. This price shall be a flat rate to
mobilize/demobilize equipment to the site and an hourly rate to load snow.
CONTRACTOR will not be paid for drive time to or from the site. Hourly
loading rate will be paid for time actually loading snow. In the event multiple
loads must be hauled, CONTRACTOR shall provide an hourly rate for hauling.
I:\Engineering\SNOW SHOVELING FOLDERS\Snow Removal Contracts`2012\2012 Final Specifications_10-9-12.docx Page 4 of 7
Only actual loading and hauling time will be paid. Idle time waiting will not be
paid. Final load disposal shall be part of mobilization/demobilization. Contractor
will also be paid for Proposal Items 1 and/or 2 if snow pile was over sidewalk and
work performed complies with Proposal Items 1 and/or 2. Before and after
condition photos are required.
Time Requirements
Snow and ice removal for the CITY must be given priority. Once the
CONTRACTOR receives the faxed snow and ice removal list from the CITY, work must
begin within four (4) hours. After beginning, work shall be continuous until the CITY
work has been completed. All snow and ice removal required by the CITY must be
completed within twenty-four (24) hours after the CITY notifies the CONTRACTOR.
TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE, ALL TIME PERIODS SHALL BE STRICTLY
ENFORCED. The CONTRACTOR shall always be ready for immediate snow and ice
removal with all equipment in good working condition. Snow and ice removal can only
occur between 7:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. The CONTRACTOR will be expected to work
weekends to complete the work required by the CITY. The only exception to the 24-hour
completion requirements is that the CONTRACTOR will not be expected to perform
snow and ice removal for the CITY on December 24th, 25th, and January 1st.
Required Work
The CONTRACTOR will be furnished, by fax, a list of sidewalks, or other areas,
to be cleared of snow and/or ice to the bare pavement. Sidewalks must be cleared of all
snow and ice, for the entire width of the walk. In the event the sidewalk abuts the street
curb, CONTRACTOR shall clear a minimum width of 5 feet when the walk is wider than
5 feet and minimum of 4 feet or full width of sidewalk if sidewalk is 5 feet or less in
width. If the CONTRACTOR cannot clear snow/ice to the bare pavement, the
CONTRACTOR shall apply rock salt and/or sand material to make it safe for pedestrian
traffic. The CONTRACTOR shall return within 24 hours after the salt or sand is applied
to remove the snow or ice. In the event the snow/ice cannot be removed during the
second trip, CONTRACTOR shall return at least once every 24 hours until snow/ice is
removed. These subsequent trips cannot be charged to the CITY; they are covered under
the original trip. Additional snow/ice accumulation on areas still undergoing snow/ice
removal cannot be charged to the CITY as an additional trip; this additional snow/ice
removal will be included in the original trip. Before and after photos must be taken
immediately before and immediately after the work is performed for all trips.
Each return trip must be documented with before and after condition photos with
correct date and time reference. Failure to provide photo documentation of return trips
shall result in non-payment for work.
The CONTRACTOR must complete an entire work list before commencing to a
new work list; however, the need for return trips will not prevent the CONTRACTOR
from proceeding to the next list.
I:\Engineering\SNOW SHOVELING FOLDERS Snow Removal Contracts\2012\2 0 l2 Final Speci6cations_10-9-12.docx Page 5 of 7
The CONTRACTOR shall take all necessary precautions to protect passersby,
public right-of-way, and neighboring property from damage and injury. The
CONTRACTOR will be held responsible for damages to sidewalks, trees, structures,
grass areas, and any other items due to their operations.
Salt and chemicals applied on or near railroad crossings can reduce the resistant
properties of timber and ballast. The CONTRACTOR shall limit the use of salt or
chemicals on or near railroad crossings.
Requirements Before Invoices will be Paid
The CONTRACTOR will not be paid for sidewalks cleared that are not on the list
provided by the CITY. The CONTRACTOR must complete an entire work list
before commencing to a new work list. Upon completion of a work list, one copy must
be returned to the Department of Public Works with the following information:
a. Address or location of each parcel;
b. Date and exact time of snow and/or ice removal;
c. Date and exact time rock salt/sand was applied;
d. Approximate length of walk at each location;
e. Before and after condition photos (in digital format) of work performed at
each location are required. Photos shall clearly identify the location of the
property with landmark features in the background (multiple photos may
be required). Camera must place correct date stamp on photos. Before
and after photos must be taken immediately before and immediately after
the work is performed;
f. Date, time, location, and photos of any return trips;
g. Photos submitted shall be grouped per list number; and
h. Any comments (for example: return trip required, already cleared,
homeowner came out to shovel, etc.).
To process proper payment, completed work statements must include all required
information on each walk shoveled and must be submitted to the Department of Public
Works with each payment request. All photographs taken must clearly show the before
and after condition of the sidewalk and be taken with adequate light. The cost of the
photo disks is considered included as part of the pertinent Bid Items. The
CONTRACTOR will not be paid for work that is not properly documented or incomplete
as per conditions of the Contract. Also, the CONTRACTOR will not be paid for work
completed after the 24-hour time limitation has expired, excluding return trips.
Public Records
As a contractor for a governmental entity, certain records created that relate to
work performed for the CITY may be subject to Wisconsin Open Records Statutes. The
successful CONTRACTOR agrees to fully cooperate with all requests related to open
records requests.
I:\Engineering\SNOW SHOVELING FOLDERS\Snow Removal Contracts∎20l2\20l2 Final Specitications_10-9-12.docx Page 6 of 7
Contract
The CONTRACTOR will be required to enter into a contract with the CITY. All
requirements found in this Request for Quotations will become legally binding terms.

A copy of the contract form to be used is enclosed. While some minor details may be
negotiated, contractors should expect to sign a contract in materially the same form as the
contract provided.

terminate this Contract before the end of the contract period, a 7-day notice shall be given
