The Pennsylvania Game Commission is soliciting bids for a construction project on State Game Lands #172 located in Bradford County's Harveys Lake Borough. The procurement involves demolishing an existing 28' x 60' metal building and constructing a new 40' x 80' pole building with comprehensive infrastructure requirements. Specific project deliverables include framing, metal siding and roof panel installation, concrete flooring, insulation, interior gypsum board installation, complete plumbing and electrical systems, HVAC ductwork, septic and water well system connections, garage and man door installation, and window placement. The bid submission deadline is February 3, 2016, at 2:00 PM, with electronic submissions required through the Pennsylvania Supplier Portal. Bidders are encouraged to visit the site to assess conditions and must comply with detailed technical specifications outlined in the bid documents. Evaluation criteria will focus on selecting the lowest responsible and responsive bidder, with the contract anticipated to commence upon purchase order issuance and terminate on June 30, 2016.

No specific set-aside designations or small business/disadvantaged enterprise requirements are explicitly mentioned in the procurement documents. The bid notices do not identify an incumbent contractor for this project. While the solicitation requires vendors to have a vendor number for payment purposes, there are no restrictions limiting participation based on business size or type. The project will be funded through the Pennsylvania Game Commission's capital budget, though the exact budget range is not specified in the documents. Contractors must provide performance, payment, and maintenance bonds, and comply with Pennsylvania's Prevailing Wage Act, Steel Products Procurement Act, and Trade Practices Act. Additional compliance requirements include adherence to state labor laws, specific insurance provisions, and documentation of worker classifications and wage rates. The project's total value is not explicitly stated, but the comprehensive scope suggests a significant infrastructure investment for the Game Commission's facilities.
