About this file
This is a Request for Quote (RFQ) specifications document for the State of Iowa's 1st District Residential Correctional Facility in Dubuque for roof repair and replacement work. The project involves selective structure demolition, rough carpentry work, metal roof panel installation, and joint sealant applications. The specifications detail removal of architectural materials and existing roof systems, installation of new standing seam metal roof panels with concealed fastener systems, roof sheathing with polyisocyanurate insulation boards, and miscellaneous accessories including flashings, gutters, and closure strips. The project must be completed by June 23, 2025. An optional pre-quote meeting is scheduled for February 25, 2025, at 10:30 AM CST at 1494 Elm St., Dubuque. All questions must be submitted by February 28, 2025, with quotes due March 6, 2025, at 2:00 PM CST through the Iowa IMPACS Procurement System. Contractors must provide a one-year warranty from the date of completion and are subject to mandatory background checks and PREA training requirements for all construction workers.
Performance and payment bonds are required for quotes exceeding $25,000. The contract will be structured as a Consensus 802 Agreement with Net 60 payment terms. Contractors must provide a Certificate of Insurance with specified limits and waiver of subrogation provisions. The State of Iowa actively seeks opportunities for Targeted Small Businesses in accordance with Chapter 73 of the Code of Iowa, requiring bidders to submit subcontractor information for any Targeted Small Business participation with their quote. Metal roof panel specifications require minimum 24-gauge galvanized steel with G60 coating, standing seam design with concealed fastener systems, and full-length panels without horizontal lapped joints. All materials must comply with referenced ASTM standards, and the roofing system must be tested for structural performance, weathertightness, and thermal movement accommodation over a 100-degree Fahrenheit temperature range.
