Certified Asbestos Abatement Services

The Macomb County Purchasing Department is seeking Certified Asbestos Abatement Services through a Request for Proposal (RFP) for the Macomb County Weatherization Assistance Program. The primary objective is to establish a roster of qualified contractors who can perform asbestos abatement services on residential weatherization projects. Contractors must adhere to minimum standards established by the United States Department of Energy, Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, Macomb County, and Macomb Community Action. The evaluation process will utilize a 55-point scoring system, with 20 points allocated for capacity, 20 points for experience, 10 points for woman or minority-owned business status, and 5 points for county-based preference. Proposal submissions are due on April 15, 2025, at 10:00 AM local time, with a proposed contract term of two years and potential for a one-year extension, creating a possible three-year contract period.

Respondents must meet specific qualifications, including holding a current Asbestos Abatement Contractor License from the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs and providing MIOSHA Asbestos Program accreditation certificates for staff. Contractors are required to demonstrate comprehensive insurance coverage, including commercial general liability, workers' compensation, automobile liability, and professional liability with specified minimum limits. The procurement includes provisions for woman and minority-owned businesses, offering additional points in the evaluation process. Contractors must also comply with the E-Verify Program and Iran Economic Sanctions Act. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the procurement is part of the Weatherization Assistance Program, suggesting potential for multiple project assignments. The county appears to be seeking a pool of qualified contractors rather than a single vendor, indicating potential for multiple awards or ongoing project-based work.
