472/25476. ABG; Chippewa City C. F. - Roof Replacement PH III

The State of Michigan Department of Technology, Management and Budget (DTMB) is seeking competitive sealed bids for a roof replacement project at the Chippewa Correctional Facility in Kinross, Michigan. The procurement involves comprehensive roof repairs and replacements across multiple housing units and buildings, specifically targeting Housing Units 3 (E/F), Housing Unit 4 (G/H), and Building 170. The project scope encompasses approximately 48,800 square feet of roof area, including removal of existing metal panel roofing, installation of new standing seam metal roofing, structural wood framing bracing, mold remediation in bathroom and shower areas, and new ceiling installations with hanging systems. A mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for November 10, 2025, at 2:30 p.m. ET at the facility's Administration Building, which will include a facility tour. Bid responses are due on December 3, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. ET through the SIGMA VSS electronic system. Contract awards will be based on a best value evaluation considering price, technical approach, personnel qualifications, management plans, and experience with Michigan Corrections Facilities. Bidders must submit 5 percent bid security and comply with state prevailing wage requirements.

The contract opportunity includes provisions for Service Disabled Veteran Owned Businesses (SDVOB), offering a potential 10 percent pricing preference for qualified veterans. Contractors must comply with specific requirements, including Michigan residency mandates (50 percent of employees), asbestos abatement procedures, and specialized mold remediation protocols. Performance and payment bonds of 100 percent of contract value are required, along with liability insurance of a minimum $2,000,000 and builder's risk insurance. The contract period allows 231 consecutive calendar days for substantial completion following the notice to proceed, with an additional 45 days for final completion. Liquidated damages are set at $1,000 per calendar day for delays. Apparent low bidders must submit detailed qualification submittals, including a pre-award schedule, bid breakdown, questionnaire, subcontractor list, and materials schedule. While a specific contract value is not explicitly stated, the extensive scope of work involving nearly 48,800 square feet of roofing, structural modifications, and remediation suggests a significant project investment for the State of Michigan.
