Carpet replacement

The Maryland Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has issued an Invitation for Bids (IFB) to procure the removal of existing carpet and the furnishing and installation of new carpet rolls and tiles at the Kenneth N. Weaver Complex. The IFB specifies that the carpet removal and replacement work must be conducted over five weekdays, with the work area including the main and annex buildings on the 2nd and 3rd floors, including the carpeted stairs. The IFB provides base bid and optional bid items, with the carpet color and pattern specified. Bidders must meet minimum qualifications of having at least 5 years of similar services experience. Bids are due by June 22, 2020, with a single award anticipated. The contract will be a firm fixed price, with no MBE or VSBE subcontracting goals.

The successful contractor will be required to provide a 5-year install warranty covering all materials, parts, and labor. The IFB states that pricing adjustments for contract renewals, which may be for up to two 1-year terms, will be negotiated. The State reserves the right to terminate the contract without cause upon 30 days' written notice. There is no information provided regarding any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond, nor any listed incumbent vendors or current contractors.
