How to bid

DPMC requires classification, renewed every 24 months; NJDOT prequalifies primes through Form DC-74A. DPMC bidders follow each advertisement's submission instructions. Contractors and subcontractors on covered public works must hold Public Works Contractor Registration, and DPMC bidders must be DPMC-classified. New Jersey public construction requires a payment and performance bond, generally 100% of the contract price; second-tier beneficiaries notify the contractor before starting work, and suit comes no sooner than 90 days after the statement of amount due and within one year of last work (N.J.S.A. 2A:44-143 to -145).

Our guides cover each step: how to bid DPMC work, licensing and lien and bond deadlines.

About this list

This story was built from DPMC's own published letting information, not from a third-party bid service. Project descriptions are DPMC's, shortened where they ran long. DPMC can add, change or withdraw projects before a letting through addenda, so check the agency's documents before you price a job. This site re-reads the source every day and adds new lettings as they appear.

  • Bid bond: a surety's guarantee, usually a percentage of the bid, that the low bidder will sign the contract and furnish the required bonds.
