Comm Dev Doors and Windows: Rev 3

Lewis County is seeking a qualified vendor to produce a pre-finished, pre-hung interior wooden door, window, and trim package for their new Community Development Building located in Chehalis, Washington. The procurement involves supplying 26 total doors (primarily Clear Vertical Grain Fir solid core doors in various configurations, ranging from 3'0" x 86" with different jamb sizes) and 9 windows (6 vertical 2' x 5' windows and 3 horizontal 18" x 4' windows). Vendors must be licensed to work in Washington state and will be required to complete a non-collusion affidavit. The project timeline includes a non-mandatory walkthrough scheduled for November 30, 2023, at 125 NW Chehalis Avenue, with questions due by December 5, 2023, and proposal submissions due by December 7, 2023. Lewis County will conduct two quality control inspections: one at the vendor's shop and another upon delivery at the project site, with any blemishes or damage requiring replacement at the vendor's expense. Vendors must provide a 5% bid bond for projects over $125,000 and demonstrate compliance with technical specifications detailed in the accompanying project documentation.

The procurement does not specifically mention set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged business enterprises, though Washington state typically has guidelines for minority and women-owned business participation. No incumbent vendors are explicitly identified in the documentation. The project is part of a broader initiative to create a "County Campus" in downtown Chehalis, consolidating government buildings and rejuvenating the historic downtown area. While precise budget ranges are not directly stated, the comprehensive nature of the project manual and detailed specifications suggest a substantial capital investment. The procurement is specifically for the door and window package, which appears to be part of a larger tenant improvement project for two adjacent buildings. Potential bidders should carefully review the extensive technical specifications in the project manuals, which include detailed requirements for materials, installation methods, and quality assurance standards across multiple building systems and components.
