PROJECT OVERVIEW

Introduction

The Colorado Veterans Community Living Centers provide holistic skilled nursing care to honor and serve our nation's veterans, their spouses and Gold Star Parents by creating opportunities for meaningful activity, continued growth and feelings of self-worth in resident-centered long-term care and supportive living environments. These Community Living Centers are located at Fitzsimons (Aurora), Rifle, Bruce McCandless (Florence), and Homelake, The Veteran Community Living Center’s vision is that all residents experience compassion, dignity and companionship in communities filled with life, love and laughter.

The State of Colorado, Department of Human Services/VCLC is soliciting bids from qualified contractors for the Replace Hail Damaged Roofs McCandless VCLC project.

This project is for necessary repairs to the roof and exterior damage for the main facility and training building at Bruce McCandless in Florence that was damaged in June 2024 from a hail storm that passed through Florence Colorado.

Scope of Services

This project consists of the removal and replacement of the existing shingle roof areas at the Colorado Veterans Community Living Center. The scope of work is limited to the main building and training buildings as described in the attached Exhibit A1 Roof Design Narrative and Exhibit A2 the Unit Take-Off.

The Department of Human Services/VCLC hired Amtech Solutions to complete a Roof Design Narrative that should be the basis for the design. They will act as the architect of record. The material type for each area should be confirmed with Exhibit B2, Unit Take-Off. For bidding purposes, where scope of repair differs between Exhibits A1 and A2, the more comprehensive description of work shall govern. Because this is a roof claim, the apparent low bidder will need to confirm that their bid aligns with the material types and quantities shown on Exhibit B2, Unit Take-Off. Where the quantities differ, the State Insurance carrier will require a justification before authorizing contract execution.

In lieu of a code compliance plan review, the awarded Roofing Contractor shall be required to prepare and submit complete shop drawings and product data sheet submittals for all proposed roofing system materials, components, and assemblies.

Submittals shall be provided to the Owner and the Owner’s Representative for review and approval prior to roofing material/system procurement, fabrication, or installation. Submittals shall demonstrate compliance with the Contract Documents and applicable project requirements. Submittals that do not meet the project requirements, are incomplete, or contain discrepancies may be rejected and returned for correction and resubmission. All costs and schedule impacts associated with rejected submittals and required resubmissions shall be the responsibility of the Contractor. No roofing work shall commence until all required submittals have been reviewed and approved.

The scope of services will include full Construction Contracting Services for the project specified during the process of construction and warranty period to the State as per the Advertisement for Bid. Specific tasks to be performed by the Contractor include those generally performed by the construction community where the Contractor is the prime vendor to the State. Bidders shall reference the drawings, specifications, and supporting documents in the Appendices for an understanding of the entire scope of the project.

Per C.R.S. § 38-26-106, if a contract amounts to $150,000 or more, the awarded contractor shall provide payment and performance bonds not less than 50% of the value of the contract. The costs associated with this bond are to be included in the contractor’s bid.
