The scope includes an estimated 1,340 annual hours of standard labor and 75 hours of non-standard labor for roofing services, plus 160 hours of standard labor and 25 hours of non-standard labor for non-roofing services, with six annual call-out fees and rental equipment as needed. Proposals were required by February 27, 2026, at 5:00 PM ET via www.myVendorLink.com, submitted in specified Excel format for price sheets. The initial contract term begins upon School Board approval and automatically renews for up to four additional one-year periods contingent on appropriations, contractor performance, continued need, and mutual agreement.

Addendum #2 specifically addresses pricing clarification, confirming that the maximum equipment markup is 15 percent, resolving prior confusion regarding listings of 15% and 5% markups.
