751/19360. AGY Various Counties - Demo and Asbestos Abatement

The Michigan Department of Technology, Management and Budget, on behalf of the Department of Natural Resources Forest Resources Division, is procuring demolition and asbestos abatement services across ten building sites located in Oscoda, Otsego, Montmorency, Missaukee, and Roscommon Counties. The procurement consists of two projects (D-5 with five sites and D-6 with two sites), with work including complete structural demolition, removal and proper disposal of all debris, site restoration to natural conditions, rough grading, and seeding. Contractors must provide all labor, materials, equipment, and permits necessary to complete the work, with specific attention to asbestos-containing material (ACM) abatement in accordance with EPA NESHAP requirements and OSHA standards as documented in detailed inspection reports provided for each site. Qualified bidders must be Michigan-registered contractors complying with prevailing wage standards where applicable, and must maintain commercial general liability insurance of at least $1,000,000 per occurrence, workers' compensation coverage, and pollution liability insurance of $1,000,000. Four mandatory pre-bid meetings were held July 9-10, 2019, at various DNR field offices, with bidders required to certify site visits for all locations included in their proposals. Electronic bids were due July 31, 2019, at 2:00 p.m. with questions accepted until July 22, 2019, at noon, and the contract completion deadline is November 15, 2019. Bidders must submit a 5% bid security with their proposals, and performance and payment bonds are required for contract amounts exceeding $50,000.

The procurement does not specify set-aside designations or restrictions based on organizational type or disadvantaged business enterprise status. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the solicitation documents. All sites are remote with no available sanitary facilities or utilities, offering flexible work hours for contractor operations. The contract explicitly prohibits federal prevailing wage requirements, though Michigan prevailing wage standards apply where mandated by state law. Bidders may submit a base bid with optional alternates, with costs covering all labor, equipment, materials, permits, insurance, and overhead, though specific budget ranges or award values are not disclosed in the solicitation materials. The contract permits a maximum of two payment requests plus a final payment of no less than 6% of the total contract amount, and all bid documentation and site maps are available through the state's SIGMA VSS procurement portal.
