751/25407. AGY; Seul Choix - Roof Re-shingle

The Michigan Department of Technology, Management and Budget (DTMB) and the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) are seeking bids for the Seul Choix Keeper's Dwelling and Boathouse Roof Reshingle Project located in Gulliver, Michigan. The procurement involves a comprehensive roof replacement for the Keeper's Residence and Boathouse, requiring contractors to remove existing asphalt and metal shingles, felt, flashing, drip edge, and metal trim, and replace any rotten sheathing with treated plywood. The project specifications mandate the installation of synthetic roofing underlayment, metal shingles, and preservation of existing architectural elements. A mandatory pre-bid conference and site tour will be held on September 3rd, 2025, at 1:00 PM ET, with electronic bids due on September 17th, 2025, at 2:00 PM Eastern Time through the SIGMA vendor self-service portal. Evaluation criteria include the total base bid, with consideration given to post-bid interviews and the potential for awarding to the best value bidder. Contractors must provide a 5% bid guarantee, performance and payment bonds for bids over $50,000, builder's risk insurance, and color samples of proposed shingles and flashing for owner approval. The contract time is set at 60 days, with specific requirements for material quality, installation methods, and compliance with state regulations.

The procurement includes provisions for Service Disabled Veteran Owned Businesses (SDVOB), offering a 10% pricing preference for businesses that are at least 51% owned by service-disabled veterans. To qualify, businesses must provide documentation including proof of military service, service-connected disability, and business ownership, with National Veterans Business Development Council (NVBDC) certification accepted as an alternative verification method. Bidders must be registered with the State Project Registration from the Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity and are limited to submitting a maximum of two attachments. While no specific incumbent vendors are mentioned, the project is funded through state facilities administration and involves roofing work at the Seul Choix Lighthouse site within Indian Lake State Park. The project includes a base bid with a $5,000 contingency allowance, and contractors must be prepared to handle potential historical discoveries, soil erosion considerations, and hazardous material protocols. Although a precise budget range is not specified, the comprehensive nature of the roof reshingle project suggests a significant investment in preserving the historical Keeper's Dwelling and Boathouse infrastructure.
