RFB949700-01 - Addendum #1.pdf

This is Addendum #1 to Request for Bid (RFB) 949700-01 issued by the State of Iowa, Department of Administrative Services, for the Independent Mental Health Institute Warehouse Roof Replacement project. The addendum clarifies project specifications and addresses questions raised during the pre-bid meeting held on April 9, 2026. The project involves complete removal of the existing roof over the warehouse and canopy and installation of a new EPDM roof system at the facility located at 2277 Iowa Avenue, Independence, Iowa. The addendum confirms that hazardous materials found on the canopy roof will be removed by a separate abatement contractor coordinated to complete abatement work prior to construction commencement. Key changes to the architectural drawings on Sheet R0 include additional core samples indicating consistent roof thickness and construction composition across multiple roof locations and clarification that new tapered insulation system installation remains required due to the relatively low slope of the existing roof assembly. The pre-bid meeting attendance list is attached as supporting documentation.

The addendum does not address pricing terms, bonding requirements, or set-aside provisions; however, the related procurement documents specify that bid security equal to 5% of the total bid amount is required and that bidders must comply with Iowa Code Chapter 73 requirements regarding Subcontractor Targeted Small Business Enterprise participation and utilization of certified State of Iowa Targeted Small Businesses. The original bid deadline was April 21, 2026, at 2:00 PM CDT, with the bid opening scheduled for March 23, 2026. Inquiries regarding the project should be directed to Michael Bradbury at michael.bradbury@iowa.gov or +1 515-823-9327.
