2025 Playground Fencing at 7 Elementary Schools.

Bay City Public Schools is seeking qualified contractors to submit bids for a comprehensive playground fencing project spanning seven elementary schools. The procurement involves the installation of chain link fences and gates, with bid specifications falling under the 323113 - Chain Link Fences and Gates division. Contractors must submit electronic, mailed, or hand-delivered proposals by 2:00 PM local time on Monday, July 7, 2025, to the Bay City Public Schools Administration Office. Wolgast Corporation will serve as the Construction Management Firm, and bids will be virtually opened and read aloud at 2:01 PM. The Owner plans to award contracts on or about Monday, July 14, 2025, potentially to separate prime contractors for individual bid divisions or combinations. Bidders are required to provide a 5% bid security via Bid Bond, Cashier's Check, or Money Order, and must submit additional documentation including a familial disclosure statement and an Iran Business Relationship Affidavit. Bid proposals cannot be withdrawn for 60 days after the bid date, and successful bidders may be required to furnish Surety Bonds.

The procurement does not explicitly specify set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The bid documents do not mention incumbent vendors or existing infrastructure requirements. The Owner reserves the right to reject any or all proposals, accept bids other than the lowest bid, and waive any informalities or errors in the bid proposals. While specific budget ranges are not detailed in the provided documentation, the project involves fencing installations across seven elementary schools, suggesting a potentially significant investment. Contractors interested in bidding should carefully review all documentation and ensure compliance with the specified requirements, including the mandatory documentation and bid security provisions. The project appears to be a comprehensive fencing initiative for Bay City Public Schools, with the potential for multiple contractors to be selected based on the Owner's discretion.
