2027-09 B25 Flooring Abatement

Springfield Technical Community College is requesting bids for flooring abatement under Project 2027-09, with bids due September 17, 2026. This is a Massachusetts state and local procurement subject to Supplier Diversity Program (SDP) requirements—the SDP Plan commitment percentage is a mandatory evaluation component and must be submitted with the bid response.

The scope is flooring abatement with an emphasis on environmentally preferable products and practices, including material selection, waste reduction, low-emission and non-toxic alternatives, and sustainable disposal and recycling protocols. Bidders must incorporate environmental considerations throughout the project and maintain compliance with environmental standards and green building practices as evaluation criteria.

Bidders must request project plans via email to stccbidclerk@stcc.edu, providing company name, address, phone, fax, and project number. Plan requests trigger mandatory compliance documentation including a Supplier Diversity Plan Form 1 (Commitment), Form 2 (SDP Partners Declaration—due within 30 days of contract execution), and Form 3 (SDP Spending Report—quarterly, due 45 days after quarter end). Procurements exceeding $150,000 require the SDP Plan to constitute 10 percent or more of the total evaluation score.

Additional mandatory submissions include a Massachusetts Substitute W-9 Form, Certificate of Good Standing from the Massachusetts Department of Revenue (within one year), Contractor Authorized Signatory Listing, Electronic Funds Transfer sign-up form, Prompt Payment Discount Form, Business Reference Form, and Tax Compliance Certification. Bids must be submitted through COMMBUYS, the Commonwealth's online procurement platform. All quotes must remain valid for at least 90 days. Contractors must comply with Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 62C, s.49A and Executive Order 504 data security requirements if applicable. The Standard Contract Form governs payment, which is processed through Electronic Funds Transfer within a 45-day cycle unless accelerated discounts are negotiated.
