This is a Notice to Bidders issued by Lake Orion Community Schools for a 2021 Furnishings Bid Package (Project 5-4740) soliciting sealed proposals from qualified furniture and equipment dealerships. The project encompasses furnishings and equipment for six school locations: Early Childhood Center, Carpenter Elementary, Orion Oaks Elementary, Webber Elementary, Paint Creek Elementary, and Stadium Drive Elementary.

Proposals will be opened publicly and read aloud at the submission deadline. The Board of Education will evaluate proposals and make award determinations at a later date. Bidders must submit two complete copies of the bid using the provided bid form, with electronic copies encouraged as supplementary documentation.

Bid security in the amount of five percent of the total bid is required from all bidders in the form of a bid bond, certified check, cashier's check, or money order payable to the Owner; personal and company checks are not acceptable. Bids exceeding $50,000 require Performance and Labor and Material Payment Bonds covering 100 percent of the project value, presented as a dollar amount rather than any other description, and such bond costs should not be included in the Base Bid. Bidders must demonstrate bonding capability and complete notarized Affidavit of Bidder and Affidavit of Compliance forms regarding the Iran Economic Sanctions Act; failure to properly complete these forms results in bid disqualification. Proposals remain firm for sixty days from the bid opening date.
