Bid Request for Cabinetry Work

Escanaba Area Public Schools in Michigan is seeking sealed bids for a cabinetry renovation project at Webster School, specifically targeting the transformation of existing lockers into new laminated benches and cubbies for a Kindergarten Center. The procurement requires contractors to install benches (15" deep) and cubbies (12" x 18") with two hooks per 18" section across two hallways: the west hallway requiring 177.75 feet and the south hallway requiring 121.5 feet of cabinetry. Bidders must submit two signed copies of their bid with a comprehensive itemized list detailing materials, labor, installation costs, and warranties. A mandatory bid security of 5% of the total bid amount must be provided in the form of a Certified Check or Bid Bond. The bid submission deadline is July 3rd, 2018, at 10:00 AM, with bids to be opened publicly at the Superintendent's Office. All contracted work must be completed by September 4th, 2018, which coincides with the first day of school. Optional pricing for installing dividers approximately every 18" between cubbies is permitted, and bidders are required to provide a sworn and notarized statement disclosing any familial relationships with school board members or the Superintendent.

There are no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on organizational types mentioned in the bid documents. Detailed specifications and drawings are available on the school's website (www.eskymos.com), and interested contractors can direct questions to the Director of Operations via email or phone. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified, and no specific information about existing infrastructure or technology integration requirements is provided. While a precise budget range is not specified, the bid process allows for competitive pricing through the submission of detailed, itemized cost proposals. The procurement appears to be open to qualified contractors capable of meeting the technical specifications for cabinetry fabrication and installation, with the expectation that bidders can provide professional, high-quality work that meets the school's requirements for the Kindergarten Center renovation.
