SCS Selinsky Green Farmhouse Chimney RFP Final 1.pdf

This is a Request for Proposals (RFP) issued by the City of St. Clair Shores, Michigan for the Selinsky Green Farmhouse Chimney Foundation and Masonry Repair Project. The project involves professional masonry repair and a new foundation for an existing unsupported chimney located at 22504 East 11 Mile Road. A mandatory site meeting is scheduled for February 13, 2025 at 1 PM for potential bidders. Sealed bids must be submitted to the St. Clair Shores City Clerk by 10:30 AM EST on February 25, 2025. The work includes visual assessment and construction of pier footings, complete repair and tuckpointing of the exposed brick chimney from foundation to cap, and various interior and exterior chimney repairs. The project is to be substantially completed by May 31, 2025.

The city will evaluate bids based on three primary criteria: cost effectiveness, similar past project experience, and ability to complete the project within the specified timeframe. Bidders must submit five required items: all items listed in the Proposal Format section, a signed Proposal Exhibit 'A', a completed Itemized Bid Sheet, signed Addendums, and a flash drive containing all submitted documents. The contract will be awarded to the most qualified bidder, with the lowest price not necessarily being the determining factor. The city reserves the right to reject any or all proposals and to waive any informalities in the bidding process. Bidders must maintain insurance coverage meeting specific minimum liability limits and comply with various legal and regulatory requirements.
