Beaverton Schools Bus Garage Roof Replacement

Beaverton Schools is seeking a qualified contractor for a comprehensive roof replacement project for its Bus Garage located at 3384 South M-18 in Beaverton, Michigan, within Gogebic County. The procurement involves a complete reroofing of the main and lower bus barn facilities, utilizing a fully adhered 60-mil non-reinforced black EPDM elastic sheet roofing system. The project requires full roof demolition, including removal of existing base flashings, edge metal, gutters, downspouts, and flue pipe flashings, followed by installation of new decking, nailers, and a .25" cover board. Contractors must provide a 20-year No Dollar Limit (NDL) labor and material warranty from the manufacturer and a 5-year labor warranty. The project specifications mandate adherence to Factory Mutual (FM) Class I approval standards and Underwriters Laboratories (U.L.) classification. The proposal is due on October 8, 2025, with the project requiring comprehensive technical capabilities in roofing installation, surface preparation, membrane application, and flashing techniques.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent types were explicitly mentioned in the procurement documents. The project allows for unit pricing on potential additional work, including wood nailer replacement, deck replacement, and fascia/soffit repairs. While no incumbent vendors were identified, the project requires detailed contractor qualifications and strict compliance with manufacturer installation guidelines. The architectural drawings, prepared by Alan Stevens Associates, Inc., provide extensive technical specifications for various roofing components, including mechanical/curb installations, pipe penetrations, perimeter edges, and flashing details. Though a specific budget range was not disclosed, the comprehensive nature of the roof replacement and the requirement for extensive warranties suggest a significant capital investment. Interested contractors will need to demonstrate expertise in EPDM roofing systems, with proven capabilities in handling complex roof rehabilitation projects for institutional facilities.
