The industry day event will be held from 9:00 to 12:00 CST on Wednesday, February 19, 2020 at 201 Saint Michael Street, Mobile, AL 36602 in Training Room 1. The meeting will consist of a general session with a presentation on the recommended plan, proposed contracting approach and schedule followed by an open discussion/feedback period. Additionally, individual 30 minute break out sessions will be held, at the request of the contractor, after the general session is over. Contractor comments and suggestions are strongly encouraged.
It is anticipated the work will be advertised under multiple Invitation for Bid (IFB) solicitations, which will result in corresponding awards of “C” type contracts, with the initial contract advertisement as early as Summer 2020. The phasing strategy, periods of performance, and number of contracts will be a discussion topic.
