About this file
The document is a Scope of Work for a facade renovation project at 898 River Street, associated with Rensselaer County, New York. The scope details specific masonry and window restoration tasks, including repointing approximately 7 vertical and 5 horizontal joints on the stone veneer, cleaning brick and stone surfaces using a low-pressure wash method, removing excess mortar, and installing 5 new white aluminum storm windows on the front facade. The project includes a bid sheet with itemized scopes of work, with responses due by September 16, 2025, and a required completion date of October 31, 2025.
The contract opportunity includes subcontracting goals of 10% for minority-owned, women-owned, and service-disabled veteran-owned businesses, with no specific set-aside for service-disabled veteran-owned businesses. Prevailing wages are not required for this project. Contractors are expected to demonstrate environmental compliance, particularly regarding lead-safe practices. The bid process allows for both itemized and lump sum pricing, with the county reserving the right to award partial project components. No previous vendors have been identified as having been awarded similar contracts in the past five years, indicating this is likely a new procurement opportunity for the specified renovation work.

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.
