CP19 BP2-Village Oaks and Orchard Hills Remodeling

The Novi Community School District is soliciting competitive sealed bids for Bid Package #2 of its 2019 Bond program, which encompasses remodeling projects at Orchard Hills Elementary and Village Oaks Elementary schools located in the Benzie County area of Michigan. This construction procurement includes 19 separate bid divisions covering sitework, demolition, concrete, masonry, steel, roofing, windows, flooring, painting, signage, food service equipment, plumbing, HVAC, and electrical work. Bidders must submit electronic bids through Building Connected by 1:00 PM EST on November 10, 2020, with public bid opening and tabulation occurring the same day, with in-person attendance limited to ten people total due to pandemic protocols and remote participation available via Zoom. A pre-bid meeting is scheduled for November 4, 2020, at 1:00 PM at Orchard Hills Elementary (41900 Quince St, Novi, MI 48375), and bidding documents are available beginning October 20, 2020, through Building Connected and at multiple public locations. All bids must be accompanied by bid security in the form of a bid bond or certified bank check equal to five percent of the bid amount, and successful bidders must provide the Familial Disclosure Affidavit, Iran Linked Business Affidavit, Criminal Background Check Affidavit, required insurance certificates, and bonds within ten days after notice of award.

The solicitation does not specify set-asides or restrictions limiting participation to particular types of organizations, though all bidders must comply with affidavit requirements related to familial relationships, Iran-linked business connections, and criminal background disclosures. Successful contract awardees may be required to furnish Performance and Labor and Material Payment Bonds in the amount of 100 percent of the contract price. The school district reserves the right to reject any or all bids, waive informalities in bidding, and accept bids other than the lowest submitted, indicating that award decisions will be based on factors beyond price alone. No specific budget range or award value is disclosed in the available solicitation documents; however, the complexity and scope of the work across 19 bid divisions spanning multiple trades suggests a substantial construction project. No incumbent vendors or integration requirements with existing infrastructure or technology systems are identified in the procurement materials.
