472/20034. HJD; Muskegon CF - Various Roof Replacements

This is a construction procurement issued by the Michigan Department of Technology, Management and Budget (DTMB), State Facilities Administration, Design & Construction Division, on behalf of the Michigan Department of Corrections for roof replacement and restoration work at Muskegon Correctional Facility (MCF) located in Muskegon, Michigan. The project scope encompasses complete roof replacement of the Administration Building, Housing Units 1 through 5, and roof recovery of the Maintenance and Powerhouse Buildings, including all associated metal flashing and sheet metal work, with metal roofing on steep-slope structures and membrane roof replacement on a small area of the Administration Building. Bidders must comply with Michigan prevailing wage requirements under 2023 PA 10, and all contractor and vendor representatives must obtain Law Enforcement Information Network (LEIN) clearance, requiring submission of a completed Vendor/Contractor LEIN Request form five business days prior to the mandatory pre-bid walk-through scheduled for April 23, 2024, at 11:00 a.m. at the facility's Visitors Center Conference Room. The contract requires 380 consecutive calendar days for substantial completion, excluding a mandatory work stoppage from approximately November 15, 2024, to April 15, 2025, plus an additional 45 calendar days for final completion, with liquidated damages set at $1,000 per calendar day for failure to meet deadlines. Electronic bid submissions through SIGMA VSS are due May 8, 2024, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time with a maximum of two attachments, each less than 6 MB, and a 5 percent bid security is required; questions must be submitted by email to lindsey.waugh@intertek.com no later than May 1, 2024, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time. The project includes technical specifications for approved metal panel systems (Inter-Lock IL20 and Petersen Aluminum Snap Clad Standing Seam Panel), oil-based enamel topcoat paint, asbestos abatement requirements, and a $200,000 provisional contingency allowance for unforeseen conditions.

No specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or minority-owned businesses are mentioned in the procurement documents. However, all work must be performed in compliance with the identified asbestos survey findings, which documented eleven asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) throughout the facility requiring proper removal by a licensed asbestos abatement contractor prior to any demolition activities, with material removal costs to be covered by the contractor at no additional cost to the state. Special working conditions applicable to Department of Corrections facilities include mandatory virtual orientation for all personnel on site, coordination of temporary security fencing through approved MDOC contractors (Nationwide Fence and Marquette Fence), and work restrictions limiting activity to one building at a time unless otherwise approved, with only one escort available during construction. Performance and payment bonds are required for bids exceeding $50,000, and the project is funded through State of Michigan resources with funding code 171CODOC7240. While no specific incumbent contractor or current contract holder is identified, the project management is being conducted by Intertek-ATI (Architectural Testing, Inc.) with DTMB-DCD Project Director Heather J DeKorte overseeing the procurement; the contract award is scheduled for July 9, 2024. The project budget is not explicitly stated in the procurement documents, though the $200,000 provisional allowance and the comprehensive scope of work across multiple buildings suggest a substantial contract value.
