Saginaw Township Community Schools has issued an Invitation to Bid for district-wide RPZ (Reduced Pressure Zone) Testing to be conducted across 19 district units. The bid solicitation is for a two-year contract period from July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2027, with sealed proposals accepted until 2:00 pm on Monday, August 11, 2025, at the Buildings and Grounds Office. The testing will be completed in two phases: Year One Testing between May 1, 2026, and June 15, 2026, and Year Two Testing between May 1, 2027, and June 15, 2027. The successful bidder will be required to contact the Director of Buildings and Grounds to schedule site visits, familiarize themselves with container locations, and coordinate with the owner's operations.

The bid requires the contractor to perform annual RPZ testing on 19 units district-wide, provide test results to the owner and local water authority, and obtain approval for any repairs needed during testing. The contractor must also certify they are not an Iran Linked Business as defined by Michigan Public Act 517 of 2012 and complete a Familial Relationship Affidavit. The District reserves the right to accept or reject any bids, waive irregularities, and will enter into a contract with the lowest responsive bidder meeting functional requirements. The bidder must submit pricing for each year of the two-year contract and will be subject to an annual performance review, with non-compliance potentially resulting in contract termination.
