McDuffie County has issued an Invitation to Bid (IFB) for comprehensive hurricane damage repairs at multiple county locations, specifically focusing on the Government Center Complex, Vonteego Park, Pitt Street Park, Big Hart Campground, and Eubank Park. The procurement requires separate bids for each location, with proposals due on September 17, 2025, at 2 p.m. at the McDuffie County Finance Department. The scope of work for the Government Center Complex involves extensive repair and restoration, including floor protection, removal and replacement of cove base molding, drywall, suspended ceiling tiles, insulation, and diffusing panels across three primary areas: the Information Technology Corridor, Information Technology Office, and Courthouse. Specific repair quantities include 76.5 linear feet of cove base molding in the IT Corridor, 351.67 square feet of drywall replacement, and 207 square feet of ceiling tile replacement. Additional tasks include taping drywall joints, sealing, priming, painting walls, and cleaning and deodorizing carpets. The county will award the contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, reserving the right to reject any or all bids.

The solicitation does not explicitly specify set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. Interested bidders can obtain specifications from the county website or by contacting Lori Ducey at 706-597-2383. The project appears to be funded through FEMA disaster recovery mechanisms, with each location having a unique project identification number indicating federal emergency management assistance. While specific budget ranges are not disclosed in the provided documentation, the comprehensive nature of the repairs suggests a potentially significant investment in infrastructure restoration. The procurement is open to contractors capable of executing detailed repair and restoration work across multiple county facilities, with a focus on comprehensive damage remediation following Hurricane Helene. Bidders will need to demonstrate technical capability, experience in similar disaster recovery projects, and the ability to meet specific repair specifications for each identified location.
