231093 - Repair Wondows Roof and Flashings at the CARC

SUNY Canton is requesting Statements of Qualifications from design and construction administration consultants to repair windows, roof, flashings, and fireproofing at the campus Convocation and Recreational Center (CARC), with SOQs due October 28, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. MWBE participation goals of 16% MBE and 14% WBE (combined 30%) and a 6% SDVOB goal apply; consultants must demonstrate good faith efforts to meet or exceed these targets through certified subconsultants.

The scope encompasses investigation of existing conditions and design and construction administration services for three primary systems: upper field house curtain wall and windows, EPDM roofing with flashings, and structural steel fireproofing in the main concourse. The work stems from water infiltration discovered in 2025, where perimeter windows lack proper flashing details and portions of roof structural steel are missing required sprayed-on fireproofing. Consultants must provide recommendations for repair or replacement, design documents, and full construction administration through completion.

The current program budget for construction is $800,000, subject to revision based on the selected consultant's findings and recommendations. Consultant fees will be negotiated following selection rather than submitted with qualifications. The timeline calls for consultant selection in December 2026, bid documents by June 2027, and construction completion by August 2028. Short-listed firms will be invited to a pre-bid meeting to view and discuss existing conditions at the CARC.

The selected consultant must provide proof of liability insurance with limits of at least $2 million per claim and comply with New York State requirements including sexual harassment prevention, gender-based violence in the workplace policies, equal employment opportunity provisions, and State Consultant Services Reporting. SOQs must be submitted in hard copy and on flash drive to Megan Warren, Director of Procurement, at SUNY Canton.
