About this file

This is Addendum No. 1, issued June 5, 2025, by City Schools of Decatur, Georgia for ITB 25-008 Interior Painting Services. The addendum modifies the original solicitation specifications for interior painting services at five schools, including hallways, common areas, classrooms, offices, walls, metal surfaces, handrails, exterior doors, and door frames, excluding closets and storage areas. All surfaces require a minimum of two topcoats after proper wall preparation. The project must be completed by June 30, 2025, with the project owner and awarded vendor to determine the start date and sequence of work across the five schools based on prioritized needs. A color schedule will be provided by the owner after contract award. The addendum clarifies that all references to interior wood have been removed from the specifications, addressing bidder confusion regarding wooden door preparation and finishing requirements.

Pricing must include priming costs regardless of final color selection, with payment terms specified as net 30 days following line item completion, accurate invoice submission with an invoice number, and project owner approval. Line items correspond to the bid schedule. The contractor must submit a detailed paint schedule within three business days of contract award, listing manufacturer names, specific product labels, and surfaces to which each product will be applied. Paint materials must be delivered to the job site at least three days before painting in original, unbroken containers and stored in a locked room. Award criteria will consider schedule, references, experience, and other factors with equal weight when pricing is comparable. An optional prebid site visit sign-in sheet is included in the addendum, and all other original terms and conditions of ITB 25-008 remain unchanged.
