Pre-bid sign-in.docx

The pre-bid sign-in document relates to the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department's (OPRD) Invitation to Bid (ITB 11658) for the Thompson's Mills State Heritage Site Tailrace Support Column Replacement Project in Linn County, Oregon. The project involves specialized structural repair work, including reinforced concrete work, carpentry, and minor steel fabrication. A mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for April 3, 2025, at 2:00 PM, with bid submissions due on April 15, 2025, at 2:00 PM through the OregonBuys electronic procurement system. The project has a substantial completion date of May 31, 2025, and a final completion date of June 19, 2025.

The procurement emphasizes diversity and encourages participation from minority-owned, women-owned, emerging small, and veteran-owned businesses. Bidders must be registered with the Oregon Construction Contractors Board and demonstrate specific historic preservation experience, including documentation of at least three projects completed on National Register of Historic Places buildings within the past ten years. The project includes six primary bid line items: mobilization/overhead, site protection, concrete work, steel fabrication, carpentry repairs, and exterior painting. Contractors must comply with Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries (BOLI) prevailing wage rates for Linn County. While a specific contract value is not explicitly stated, the project requires precise structural interventions, including hand excavation due to archaeological restrictions, and specifies technical requirements for materials such as pressure-treated Douglas fir-larch wood members and hot-dip galvanized steel components.
