CCGA-2443 Replace Roof of College of Coastal Georgia Camden Center (Kingsland GA)

The College of Coastal Georgia, located in the state of Georgia and specifically serving Candler County, is seeking sealed bids for Project CCGA-2443 to replace the roof of the Camden Center located in Kingsland, GA. The procurement is a public works construction contract focusing on comprehensive roof replacement involving thermal and moisture protection, asphalt shingles, PVC roofing, roof specialties, accessories, carpentry, and joint sealant work. The project covers approximately 22,817 square feet of roof area, requiring complete removal of existing roofing materials down to the deck and installation of new underlayment, flashings, and roofing systems. Bidders must submit sealed proposals by February 11, 2025, at 2:00 PM to the Physical Plant Conference Room in Brunswick, Georgia, with a mandatory pre-bid conference scheduled for January 21, 2025, at 10:00 AM in the Camden Center Lobby. Evaluation criteria include bidder eligibility status, past performance on public works contracts, financial capability (minimum 1.0 current ratio), safety record (EMR not exceeding 1.2), and demonstrated ability to successfully complete projects. The contract will be awarded on a lump sum basis to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with a required 5% bid bond and 100% performance and payment bonds.

The procurement does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The contract encourages the use of Georgia products and labor where possible, in alignment with state procurement regulations. A 180-consecutive calendar day completion timeline is mandated from the proceed order date, with specified liquidated damages for delays beyond the material completion date. While no specific budget range is disclosed in the documents, the procurement allows the owner to either supplement the budget or negotiate with the lowest responsive bidder if all bids exceed the anticipated project cost. The project requires careful coordination with existing HVAC equipment, which must remain operational throughout the renovation, and special attention to preserving existing copper architectural elements like fascia, wall panels, and conductor heads. Bidders must also provide unit pricing for potential additional work, such as roof deck replacement, curb modifications, and downspout/gutter replacements. The dome roof area is explicitly excluded from the base bid scope, which may represent potential additional future work.
