2019-093 Police Department Roofing Project

The City of Fond du Lac, Wisconsin is seeking sealed bids for a comprehensive roofing project at the Police Department located at 126 North Main Street. The primary procurement involves removing approximately 16,990 square feet of existing roofing and replacing it with a single-ply membrane system with stone ballast, along with installing new insulation for the entire roof. An alternate bid option is available for a fully adhered EPDM system with cover board, and a secondary alternate bid includes demolition and removal of an existing overhead canopy on the southwest end of the building. The project requires a mandatory pre-bid walk-through scheduled for 10:00 AM on October 24, 2019, at the work site, with sealed bids due by 2:00 PM on October 29, 2019, to be publicly opened and read aloud at the City/County Government Center. Bidders must submit a certified check, bank draft, or bid bond for five percent of the gross bid as a guarantee of contract execution. Each bidder is required to file and obtain approval of the "Bidder's Proof of Responsibility" for 2019 at least five days prior to the bid opening, with the Director of Public Works making final qualification determinations.

The solicitation does not specify any specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The City of Fond du Lac reserves the right to reject any or all bids without disclosing a reason and can waive any bidding formalities or informalities. While no incumbent vendor is mentioned, the bid documents request unit pricing for potential roof deck replacement work. The procurement does not explicitly state a specific budget range or total project value, though the comprehensive nature of the roofing replacement suggests a substantial investment in infrastructure maintenance. Interested contractors must contact Josh Musack, City Purchasing Manager, at 920-322-3453 or jmusack@fdl.wi.gov to obtain complete bidding documents. Successful bidders will be expected to execute the contract and file a performance bond within ten days of award notification, with bids remaining valid for thirty days after the opening date.
