Douglas County Parks is seeking bids for RFB #239, a project to replace boat docks at Cooper Creek Reservoir in Sutherlin, Oregon. The procurement involves the complete design, fabrication, and delivery of aluminum boarding docks for east and west boat ramps, with specific requirements for dock configurations including Type A, Type B, and Type C docks measuring 6 feet by 20 feet. Contractors must fabricate dock components using ASTM B209 aluminum alloy 5086-H116, with pultruded fiberglass grating for decking and specific material specifications. The project is overseen by the Oregon State Marine Board and requires compliance with the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) and Build America, Buy America Act (BABA), mandating 55% domestic content for all materials. Sealed bids are due by December 22, 2025, at 2:00 PM PDT, with a public bid opening at 2:15 PM the same day at the Parks Department office in Roseburg. Key evaluation criteria include lowest responsive responsible bidder, with contractors required to demonstrate a minimum of five years of consecutive experience in aluminum structure manufacturing. The project must be completed with dock delivery by June 30, 2026, and Mark Wall, Parks Director, serves as the contract administrator and sole point of contact for bidder communications.

The contract has specific requirements for bidder qualifications, including resident bidder status under ORS 279A.120, which considers businesses that have paid Oregon unemployment or income taxes and maintain a state business address. Contractors must provide performance and payment bonds, workers' compensation coverage, and proof of public works bond filing. The project is funded through the Oregon State Marine Board Boating Facility Grant Agreement No. 1743 and Sub-Award Grant Agreement No. 293-25, with a two-year warranty required for materials and workmanship. While no specific set-aside designations are mentioned, the procurement includes an Oregon product preference for goods manufactured or produced in the state if price, fitness, availability, and quality are equivalent. Liquidated damages of $500 per calendar day will be imposed for failure to complete dock delivery by the June 30, 2026 deadline. Contractors must submit shop drawings within 20 days of the Notice to Proceed and obtain engineer approval before fabrication. While a specific award value is not explicitly stated, the project requires comprehensive insurance coverage, including $1,000,000 combined single limit per occurrence for commercial general liability and $1,000,000 combined single limit per accident for automobile liability.
