About this file

This is Addendum No. 1 to Request for Quotation ARFQ 0608 DCR2600000045 issued by the State of Arkansas Department of Correction and Rehabilitation for the procurement of prefabricated metal buildings at Stevens Correctional Center and Jail. The project involves the installation of two prefabricated metal storage buildings, with the first building positioned on a new concrete pad measuring 50 feet long by 20 feet wide, with four feet of the building's back extending onto an existing eight-foot-wide sidewalk. The addendum addresses ten questions and three clarifications from potential bidders regarding technical specifications, site conditions, and project logistics. Key modifications include confirmation that the bid submission deadline has been moved to 10:30 AM EST on December 18, 2025, with bids to be submitted by this revised date and time.

The addendum clarifies several operational and structural parameters for bidders' planning purposes. Acceptable specifications include a 35 PSF (pounds per square foot) loading standard rather than the originally specified 40 PSF, vertical roof sheeting orientation, R17 insulation for carport-style buildings, and man doors positioned 5 feet from the building end. The addendum confirms that no electrical outlets are available on-site, requiring contractors to provide their own portable generator for tool operation. Contractors may utilize the facility's restroom facilities, are not required to provide portable restroom facilities, and may use the area behind the existing old building as a material laydown area. However, contractors are explicitly prohibited from using an existing storage container located on the concrete pad of building no. 1.
