Deliverables include removing existing doors and jambs, preparing new openings, installing steel exterior-grade doors with welded jambs, and restoring associated siding and interior finishes. All doors must meet specific requirements, including Stanley Best hardware, and be painted in Sherwin Williams SW7520 color. The procurement is a competitive Request for Proposal (RFP No. 190000000868) with a mandatory pre-proposal meeting originally scheduled for February 6, 2019 (later rescheduled to February 7, 2019), and proposal submissions due by February 15, 2019, at 3:00 PM Eastern.

Contractors must provide comprehensive insurance coverage, including Commercial General Liability ($1M per occurrence), Umbrella/Excess Liability ($5M aggregate), Automobile Liability ($1M), and Workers' Compensation. The contract includes a one-year warranty on all work and allows for potential additional door replacements at other locations like Joint Force Headquarters in Lansing and Grand Ledge Army Air Field. Liquidated damages of $5,000 plus $100 per day will be applied for late or improper completion.
