898 River Street – UPDATED Scope of Work by Trade 8-22-2025-Bid Sheet
NO QUESTIONS RECEIVED-9-10-2025
General Q1: Do we have to use the bid sheet and itemize the scopes of work?
A: Yes, you must use the complete BID packet available on our website and on the NYS Contract Reporter. You are required to itemize the specific scopes of work you want to be considered for. If you'd prefer to be considered only for a lump sum bid (one total price covering all scopes of work), you can do that—but you must include a written explanation stating that intention. Please note that if we decide to award only part of the project to a vendor, we’ll need itemized pricing to accurately deduct that portion from the full bid.
Q2. What lead-safe practices are required?
A. Contractors are responsible for identifying and addressing all environmental concerns, including compliance with lead-safe practices. They are expected to demonstrate professional judgment and follow all applicable regulations and guidelines.
Q3. Will prevailing wages be required?
A. Prevailing wages are not required.
