12-month contract for on-call window and door glazing

Yonkers Public Schools and the City of Yonkers Bureau of Purchasing are seeking a qualified contractor for a 12-month on-call window and door glazing contract (RFB-7547) covering district-wide glass replacement services. The procurement requires a contractor with minimum three years of experience in window repair who can provide comprehensive glazing services, including site visits, glass replacement, labor, and equipment charges. Specific deliverables include labor for glaziers and helpers during normal and premium work hours, with an estimated $15,000 wholesale parts budget. The contractor must supply all necessary labor, materials, equipment, and transportation, and provide a one-year warranty on labor and parts. Key submission deadlines include written questions due by November 3, 2025, at 2 PM EST, with bid opening scheduled for November 7, 2025, at 2:00 PM. Bidders must comply with strict workplace conduct guidelines, including signing in and out of buildings and wearing identification. The contract includes provisions for potential two additional 12-month renewal periods, with successful vendors required to adhere to federal, state, and local regulations, including prevailing wage requirements and OSHA standards.

The procurement does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, though standard non-discrimination policies are referenced. Contractors must submit comprehensive bid documentation, including bid bonds, performance bonds, and labor and material payment bonds that provide financial guarantees to the City of Yonkers. While no incumbent vendors are mentioned, the contract includes detailed bonding requirements that establish financial protections for the city and potential subcontractors. The bid emphasizes compliance with legal and regulatory frameworks, suggesting potential barriers to entry for less experienced contractors. Though a precise award value is not specified, the $15,000 parts budget and provisions for hourly rates during normal and premium work hours indicate a moderate-scale procurement. The contract's structure allows flexibility for the school district, with the ability to leverage the contractor's services on an as-needed basis for window and door glazing requirements across district facilities.
