BID 9846 Boiler Replacement Program Troy High School

Berrien County is procuring boiler replacement services for Troy High School under BID 9846, part of the Troy School District 2013 Bond Program, administered by Barton Malow Company as Construction Manager. The procurement encompasses three primary bid categories: Mechanical (230000), Temperature Controls (230933), and Electrical (260000) work, with the primary objective of replacing the school's boiler system. Deliverables include the complete removal and installation of new boiler equipment, temperature control systems, and associated electrical infrastructure, with all work coordinated to minimize disruption to existing building operations. Contractors must provide Performance and Payment Bonds equal to 100% of the contract price, certificates of insurance naming both Barton Malow Company and Troy School District as additional insureds, and evidence of prevailing wage compliance in accordance with Michigan Prevailing Wage Act requirements. Required qualifications include submission of hourly labor rates for all job classifications, 5% bid security from a qualified surety, and proof of ability to complete work within the specified timeline. Bid proposals were due by 2:00 p.m. on October 26, 2017, submitted to Todd Hensley at Troy School District. A mandatory pre-bid walk-through was conducted on October 16, 2017, at 8:00 a.m. at Troy High School. The project schedule requires work to commence by November 1, 2017, with targeted completion on December 22, 2017. The contract is based on AIA Document A132 (2009 Edition).

The procurement does not identify specific set-aside designations or restrictions on eligible respondents based on enterprise status; however, all contractors must comply with Michigan Prevailing Wage Act requirements and secure approval from the Michigan Department of Labor for mechanical and electrical work. The procurement requires submission of sworn prevailing wage statements, final lien waivers from all subordinate parties, and complete close-out documentation prior to final payment. All applicable state sales and use taxes must be included in bid amounts, and contractors bear responsibility for temporary facilities, utilities, protective barriers, and daily site cleanup. Unit prices and voluntary alternates are permitted but must be clearly detailed in proposals. The procurement document does not specify an overall budget range or award value; however, individual building cost breakdowns must be provided for four elementary schools (Costello, Martell, Morse, and Leonard) for accounting purposes. The project is subject to oversight by the Michigan Department of Labor, State Fire Marshal requirements, and applicable county health department approvals.
