About this file

This is a pre-bid meeting minutes and agenda document for the Berkley Schools 2027 Roofing Program, involving Berkley Schools (the owner), WeatherTech Consulting Group, Inc. (the project consultant), and the City of Berkley, Michigan. The project encompasses roof replacement work at three schools: Angell Elementary School, Pattengill Elementary School, and Berkley High School, with designated roof areas at each location. Contractors have approximately 45 workdays to substantially complete the project, beginning June 14, 2027, and achieving substantial completion by August 13, 2027. The mandatory pre-bid meeting was held on November 2, 2026, at 8:30 am, followed by roof walks at all three school locations. Requests for Information (RFIs) were due to WeatherTech by November 9, 2026, at 12:00 pm EST, with addendum responses posted by November 12, 2026. Sealed bids were due Wednesday, November 18, 2026, by 1:00 pm EST at 14501 Talbot, Oak Park, Michigan, with public opening immediately following the bid deadline. Contract award was anticipated at the December 2026 Board of Education meeting. Work is restricted to Monday through Friday, 7:00 am to 6:00 pm, with Saturday available as a rain makeup day in compliance with Berkley city noise ordinances; no Sunday work is permitted.

The roofing scope includes 90 mil fully-adhered EPDM roof system replacement with 30-year manufacturer warranty at designated areas across all three schools, except Angell Elementary's Roof Area K, which requires shingle roof replacement with allowance for 150 square feet of deck replacement. Allowances are included in base bids as follows: Angell Elementary School, $10,000.00; Pattengill Elementary School, $8,500.00; and Berkley High School, $31,500.00, with unused allowance dollars to be credited back to the district. A five percent (5%) bid bond or certified check is required with bid submission. Each school is a separate line item, allowing contractors to bid on selected schools individually. Berkley Schools anticipates awarding to multiple contractors to meet schedules. Liquidated damages of $500 per day apply after August 13, 2027. Contractors must provide both Payment and Performance Bonds and submit a sworn, notarized familial disclosure statement and Iran Economic Sanctions Act compliance documentation. All roofing work must adhere to design documents, with any deviations requiring formal written approval. Interior protection for Berkley High School gym floors, stands, and equipment locations must be included in bid amounts.
