About this file
This is an amendment to an Invitation to Bid (ITB) issued by the Tennessee Department of Correction for a gym door replacement project at the Northwest Correctional Complex (NWCX) in Tiptonville, Tennessee. Amendment #1, effective April 23, 2026, addresses eight bidder questions and clarifies ITB specifications for the installation of 15 exterior door openings: twelve single exterior doors (3' x 7') located at the Northside Residential Unit (NRU) in rooms 151-156 on the first floor and 251-256 on the second floor, and three double exterior doors (6' x 7') at Building 7, Main Compound (doors F101, F102, and F103). The doors are not fire-rated and require frame preparation only for deadbolt hardware mortising, with all deadbolts to be supplied and installed by the State. The original April 29, 2026 delivery date is confirmed as a system placeholder rather than a hard contractual requirement; the awarded vendor will coordinate actual delivery timelines with the facility upon award. The bid deadline has been extended to May 4, 2026, at 2:00 P.M. CST, and respondents must be licensed general contractors in the State of Tennessee with proof of valid licensure required at submission.
No pricing terms, set-asides, or funding sources are specified in this amendment document. All other terms and conditions of the original ITB remain in full force and effect unless expressly amended herein. Bidders are advised that the State will be ready to begin the project immediately upon award, and all work must comply with manufacturer specifications, applicable codes, and professional quality standards with installation occurring Monday through Friday from 8:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. CST, excluding state holidays. Respondents must have conducted mandatory on-site inspections prior to bid submission and must register with the State of Tennessee Supplier Portal before contract issuance.
