Carbon County Government Contracts, RFPs & Bids

At the June 9, 2026 meeting, the Lehigh Township Board of Supervisors awarded the 2026 oil and chip road project to AMS after receiving only a single bid. The project covers roads that had to be cut from last year’s scope, with a not‑to‑exceed contract price of 197,475.25. Staff noted that AMS frequently serves the eastern part of Pennsylvania and is considered more competitive and higher quality than some smaller firms. This award confirms AMS as the incumbent on oil and chip work in the township, creating intelligence for competitors and subcontractors about pricing level, service expectations, and geographic focus. Vendors in paving, chip sealing, materials supply, traffic control, or inspection services can use this information to anticipate when Lehigh Township may next rebid or expand its program. Follow‑on opportunities could include supplemental road work, repair of other roads like Cedar Drive that are anticipated for future schedules, or next‑cycle oil and chip bids where AMS will be the incumbent to beat.
