The Michigan Department of Military & Veterans Affairs (DMVA) initiated a procurement for barrack door replacement services at Fort Custer Training Center (FCTC) through a Request for Proposal (RFP) issued on January 25, 2019, with responses due by February 15, 2019. The procurement sought a contractor to replace barrack doors, with a contract term of three years and two optional one-year renewals, contingent on fiscal year funding availability. The project's key objectives included replacing existing doors to meet facility infrastructure needs, with specific technical requirements evaluated through a comprehensive vendor questionnaire and product specification review. Evaluation criteria focused on technical compliance, with proposals assessed on meeting all specified requirements and demonstrating capability to perform the required services. The procurement process involved a detailed review by Greg Pawlak, Buyer Specialist, and Charles Lipsey, DPW Facilities Supervisor, who conducted a thorough assessment of the submitted proposal.

The contract opportunity was specifically designed to provide opportunities for service-disabled veteran-owned businesses, with Robbert Construction Inc., a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Business (SDVOB) located in Lakeview, Michigan, emerging as the sole bidder. This vendor was recommended for award after achieving a perfect 100/100 evaluation score and demonstrating full compliance with technical requirements. The total contract award value is $141,800.00, with potential for door replacement services at FCTC and potentially other DMVA facilities as determined by the department. No quick pay discount was offered, and the procurement was structured to provide flexibility in service delivery based on ongoing facility needs. The contract represents a targeted approach to facility maintenance and infrastructure improvement, leveraging the capabilities of a service-disabled veteran-owned business to address the DMVA's door replacement requirements.
