Michigan's Department of Technology, Management and Budget (DTMB), State Facilities Administration Design & Construction Division, is soliciting bids for various lighting repairs at Alger Correctional Facility under File 472/26236.JBB, with bids due November 18, 2026. Construction Addendum No. 1, issued November 2, 2026, extended the bid opening by one week to that date. The solicitation package includes a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Business information sheet covering certification, eligibility, and documentation requirements for SDVOB consideration on Michigan contracts. The sheet does not establish a set-aside in the attached materials.

The core scope is pole and fixture replacement. Contractors install new poles and bases with grout at the base, chip away existing grout and replace it during pole replacement, and provide for weep holes. Contractors must supply all mounting brackets, arms, and accessories for fixture mounting on new poles, compatible with 2-3/8" tenon dimensions. Poles may remain in place during painting, with all lights and cameras operational at shift end. Addendum 1 adds attic stock pole shop drawings, staging area information, and photographic references of existing poles and bases.

Acknowledgement of Addendum 1 in the bid documents is mandatory, with failure to do so potentially resulting in bid rejection. Matrix Consulting Engineers is the professional, with Jeffrey Barsch as project director.

The pre-bid meeting took place October 27, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. at N6141 Industrial Park Drive, Munising, Michigan. Its attendance record lists representatives from Murray-Coatsy LLC and other bidding firms.
