23-3003817 Qualification for Special Purpose Home Repair

The DeKalb County Department of Purchasing & Contracting is seeking to prequalify experienced contractors to provide residential home repair services for the Special Purpose Home Repairs Program. The County is soliciting statements of qualifications from suppliers interested in performing basic system repairs or replacements for heating, plumbing, electrical, and roofing, as well as other structural repairs on single-family detached homes. Qualified contractors must have a minimum of four years of relevant experience, applicable licenses, and details on prior projects. This Request for Vendor Qualifications (RFVQ) process will establish a list of at least five qualified suppliers who will be eligible to participate in future bid opportunities for individual home repair projects over a term of up to five years. The RFVQ specifies the required insurance coverage, certifications, and compliance with the DeKalb County First Source Jobs Ordinance. The County reserves the right to award projects on a rotating basis and may suspend or terminate contractors who fail to respond or perform satisfactorily.

The RFVQ is funded through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program, and the County reserves the right to not include homes with lead-based paint at the time of contracting. There are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The RFVQ does not provide any information on incumbent vendors, current contractors, or existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The RFVQ also does not include any information on possible award values or budget ranges.
