Award:

Bids will be reviewed at 11 AM on July 20th, 2026 in the Denali Borough Office. Notification of award

will occur prior to the close of business July 20th, 2026. Bids will be scored on a combination of labor

capacity, equipment availability, and price of bid. Estimated work time per event is approximately two

hours. The hourly rate must be for actual time spent on site clearing snow, all other expenses related

to the work, including travel time, labor, and fuel costs, should be included in the hourly rate. The

Denali Borough reserves the right to reject any and all Bids and to waive any informalities and

irregularities in a Bid or during award of the Contract. The contract that will be awarded to the

successful bidder contains the potential for a rate change triggered by economic factors out of the

control of the contractor or the Denali Borough.

The first trigger for a price change is if there is a 25% increase in the price of diesel at Healy Vitus. The

starting price will be $5.09, the price as of 6/24/26. The diesel 25% increase trigger price will be $6.36.

It is the responsibility of the contractor to notify the Borough when diesel hits the trigger price. If the

diesel trigger is hit, there will be a 10% rate increase from the contractor’s hourly bid rate.

The second opportunity for a price increase will be a calculation from the end of the previous year’s

Urban Alaska Consumer Price Index (CPI) increase. The CPI percent increase will be added to the

contractor’s hourly bid rate effective July 1st each year. The calculations will be made from the

information at this site: https://live.laborstats.alaska.gov/cpi/table Example: If there was an active

agreement in place on July 1st, 2026, there would be an automatic increase of 2.1% of the bid price

according to the 2025 end of year CPI percentage increase.

Responsibility:

Bidders must include at least 1, and up to 3 references (name, contact phone number) who may speak

to the bidder’s ability to successfully clear snow.

The successful bidder must carry comprehensive insurance, and proof must be provided of commercial

General Liability insurance with a limit of not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence and aggregate, prior

to performance under this contract. The Contractor shall ensure that insurance is in force that provides

protection for the Denali Borough from any claim which might arise from the Contractors work under

this Agreement. The insurance shall provide protection whether the work is performed by the

Contractor, sub- contractor, or their employees, agents, successors, or assignees.

Please contact Project Coordinator Forest Shreeve at 907-888-4639 or fshreeve@denaliborough.com,

with questions regarding this solicitation. All questions must be submitted prior to 1 PM July 13, 2026.

If required, answers will be posted via an Amendment. Successful bidders must acknowledge review of

any amendment on the attached Bid Certification.
