This is an Addendum No. 1 to an Invitation to Bid issued by the Oregon Department of Transportation for the DMV Headquarters Replacement of Chiller #2 project (ITB No. S-73000-00016059). The project involves the replacement of a 140-ton chiller unit at the DMV Headquarters in Salem, Marion County, Oregon, with bid submission required through OregonBuys by April 2, 2026. A mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for March 17, 2026 at 1:30 PM Pacific Time at the project site (1905 Lana Ave, Salem, OR 97314), with non-attendance resulting in automatic bid rejection. Project commencement is no earlier than October 1, 2026, with substantial completion required by November 24, 2026 and final completion by November 30, 2026. Liquidated damages are assessed at $600 per calendar day for delays beyond the substantial completion date, and award will be made to the lowest responsive bid from a responsible bidder, followed by a five-calendar-day protest period.

This addendum specifically modifies the Project Description section of Sample Contract Exhibit 5 by deleting the requirement that the contractor store the chiller on site and replacing it with a requirement that the contractor store the chiller at a secure location off site from the project location until installation. The contractor must possess a current Construction Contractors Board license, maintain a public works bond, and comply with Oregon prevailing wage rates for Marion County and State Buy America requirements. All bidders must submit bid security equal to 10% of the total bid amount, along with required certifications and subcontractor disclosure forms. The project cost estimate for bonding purposes ranges from $100,000 to $300,000, with funding anticipated from State sources and award contingent upon receipt of sufficient funding. Contact information for the buyer, Joanne Robinson, is provided as joanne.m.robinson@odot.oregon.gov or 503-569-8015.
