This addendum is issued by the Commonwealth of Virginia Department of General Services, Division of Purchases and Supply, to modify the Two-Step Invitation for Bid (2-Step IFB) #128939 for Non-Professional Construction Related Services. Addendum No. 2 extends the bid due date from November 2, 2026, to November 6, 2026, at 2:00 P.M. Eastern Time, with the submission deadline unchanged in time. The solicitation encompasses thirteen commodity codes (96196, 91813, 91831, 91873, 91896, 92555, 92658, 95826, 95877, 96114, 96121, 96847, 99247) and seeks to establish statewide contracts for as-needed non-professional construction-related services to support all Commonwealth agencies, institutions of higher education, and other public bodies. Service categories include roof consultation and inspection, asbestos and lead inspection, testing and balancing, move management, scheduling, cost estimation, project management, project inspection and clerk of the works, special inspection and testing, building maintenance and repair, landscape design, certified value specialist services, and commissioning services restricted to new construction and major renovations. Bidders may bid any category in one or more of five regions: Central, Northern, Southwestern, Tidewater, and Western. The contract term runs from an estimated January 1, 2027, through December 31, 2028, with three optional one-year renewals, and renewal price increases are limited to the change in the Consumer Price Index for Services (CPI-U).

Step One requires an unpriced technical proposal including a Vendor Data Sheet (Attachment B) with at least four current or recent references containing contract values, a subcontracting plan (Attachment C), and a State Corporation Commission form (Attachment D). Step Two opens sealed bid sheets only from acceptable technical proposals, with awards going to the lowest responsive and responsible bidders by lot and region, with multiple awards anticipated. Pricing is entered on Attachment F as low and high hourly pay rates plus a regular markup percentage per category and region; testing rates pass through at actual cost with no markup, and travel beyond 25 miles is reimbursed at Commonwealth Accounting Policies and Procedures Manual rates. All bidders must submit a Small Business Subcontracting Plan with evaluation points awarded for DSBSD-certified small business participation toward the Commonwealth's statewide goal of 42% purchases from DSBSD-certified small businesses. DSBSD-certified micro or small offerors receive maximum available points with no further subcontracting requirements. Contractors must file quarterly sales reports and pay a 2% surcharge on quarterly invoiced sales. Contracts exceeding $50,000 require E-Verify participation for employers with more than 50 employees. Submission is through eVA only, and the public bid opening is held via Microsoft Teams. A signed acknowledgement of this addendum must be received prior to the bid due date or attached to the bid submission.
