Project Informational Oversight
This site provides procurement information concerning the Brent Spence Bridge Corridor Progressive Design-Build Project (ODOT PID 116649). The Brent Spence Corridor is a major thoroughfare for both local and national traffic; connecting two states that are critical to the movement of people, goods, and services. It is part of a nationally-recognized corridor for freight and interstate travel that covers eight miles spanning the Ohio Western Hills Viaduct to just south of Dixie Highway in Kentucky.
The Project (PID 116649) will reconstruct approximately 5 miles of I-71/I-75 in Kentucky and 1 mile of I-75 in Ohio and will include construction of a new companion bridge over the Ohio River just to the west of the existing Brent Spence Bridge. As such, ODOT and KYTC established a Bi-State Management Team (BSMT) with the authority to oversee the Project. ODOT will be the lead contracting agency but will team with KYTC in respect to the BSMT's efforts. The project design and construction costs are estimated at $3.1 Billion for the Design-Build contract.
Jan 13 2023 Update: The contracting procurement will follow a Progressive Design-Build Format. A Request for Proposals is tentatively scheduled for February 17, 2023. The PDB procurement will consist of a
single-step Request for Proposals (RFP) with interviews. The RFP will request qualifications,
understanding, and approach components for the technical submittal. While there
will not be a separate request for qualifications, the BSMT may (if necessary) create a “shortlist”
of the most highly qualified Offerors who’ve responded to the RFP; the BSMT
will conduct interviews with Offerors. Final selection will consider the RFP,
interviews, and a competitive bidding element.
Subsequently, final design and final construction costs will be
developed with the selected DBT with the NEPA preferred alternative being the
basis of the design efforts. Open-book
pricing will be compared to an Independent Cost Estimator.

BSB Progressive DB Key Elements
| | | | 10/14/2022 4:32 PM | Given the current environment as it relates to project risk, inflationary trends, the need for ongoing engagement of the adjacent impacted communities and interested 3rd parties, the Brent Spence Management Team has made the decision to revise the procurement method from Value-Based Fixed-Price Design-Build (VBDB) to Progressive Design-Build (PDB). Progressive Design-Build will allow the Design-Build Team (DBT) and ODOT/KYTC to collaboratively consider and address major Project topics in a more open format which cannot be achieved with a Value-Based DB contracting method. Progressive Design-Build uses a best-value selection to determine the preferred DBT, followed by a process whereby the owner and DBT “progresses" towards a design and a resultant contract price. The DBT is selected through a combination of technical qualifications and “competitive bidding elements" without necessarily a fixed firm price. The DBT collaborates with the owner to create/confirm the basis of design, overall project requirements, and final design intent. Project design decisions are based on cost, schedule, quality, operability, life cycle and other considerations; the DBT provides ongoing and transparent pricing estimates. An “owner contract off-ramp" is an option if commercial and pricing terms are not agreed.
The competative bidding element process will be explained in an upcoming announcement.
