The City of Westland's Tax Increment Finance Authority (TIFA) is requesting proposals for annual cleaning and maintenance of the Nankin Square Amphitheatre at 7200 Nankin Boulevard in Westland, Michigan, with clarifying questions due November 20, 2026 and proposals due November 24, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. The source names no set-aside or preference program.

The scope covers annual inspection and maintenance of the structural steel frame and PTFE fabric membrane (Chukoh FGT-800), including fastener and bolt checks, protective coating inspection and touch-up, fabric tension verification, and cleaning of steel and membrane components. The contractor must supply its own platform ladders, scaffolding, and static line fall restraint systems. All work must follow warranty guidelines and manufacturer protocols. Deliverables include detailed inspection records, JPEG photographs, and maintenance documentation to preserve product warranties. Required insurance includes $1.0 million in comprehensive general liability, workers' compensation, $500,000 bodily injury and property damage motor vehicle coverage, and $2.0 million in umbrella excess liability, with the City named as additional insured on all policies. Before award, the vendor must complete a Vendor Ethics Disclosure Statement covering any substantial interests held by city officials or employees.

The contract term is one year, with an optional two-year extension at the City's discretion. Pricing must be submitted as an annual total. Bidders must provide three business references and documentation of comparable project experience.

The City will conduct a qualifications-based selection that considers fee proposals. Evaluation criteria are experience and qualifications, capacity, methodology and work plan, comparable projects, cost, and past performance. No pre-bid meeting is scheduled, and bidders may visit the site independently. Questions go by email to Devin Adams at dadams@cityofwestland.com. Proposals are submitted to the City of Westland Purchasing Division at 36300 Warren Road, Westland, Michigan 48185.
