FWC ITB - Addendum 2.pdf

This is Addendum 2 to an Invitation to Bid (ITB) issued by the Florida Department of Management Services on behalf of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission for a roof replacement project at the South Region Headquarters in West Palm Beach. The project encompasses comprehensive roofing system replacement across three buildings, including installation of 24-gauge Berridge Double Lock Zee Lock metal roof panels, soffit and plywood deck replacement, new aluminum gutters and downspouts, sheet metal flashing, trim work, and lightning protection systems. A mandatory pre-bid site visit was scheduled for December 19, 2025, at 1:00 PM ET, with all bidder questions due by December 23, 2025. Sealed bids were originally due January 6, 2026, at 2:00 PM ET, with a public bid opening via Microsoft Teams. The primary change announced in Addendum 2 is the postponement of the anticipated award date to January 19, 2026. The project requires substantial completion within 60 days per building, totaling 180 calendar days, plus an additional 30 days for final completion.

The estimated construction cost is $800,000, and the contract will be awarded to the qualified, responsive low bidder in accordance with Florida Administrative Rule 60D-5. Only qualified licensed general or roofing contractors may submit bids, and vendors on the convicted vendor list or the State of Florida's discriminatory vendor list are prohibited from bidding. A bid bond of at least five percent of the bid amount is required, with performance and labor/material payment bonds required for contracts exceeding $100,000. The winning contractor must establish a local office within 300 road miles of the project site and provide on-site field supervision. The roofing contractor must obtain a roofing permit and coordinate with electrical and lightning protection contractors, with deliverables including a 40-year manufacturer warranty and 5-year roofer warranty.
