Dept of Military, Repair Roof of Area 4 (Act of Nature)- Mitchell

The South Dakota Department of the Military is seeking a design-build contractor to repair the roof of Area 4 at the CSMS #1 facility located in Mitchell, South Dakota. This procurement involves a comprehensive roof replacement project requiring full design and construction services to address a 20-year-old existing 60 mil fully adhered roof system. The project mandates drafting a code-compliant roof replacement design and executing complete demolition and construction of a new roof system that will be warrantied for 20 years from substantial completion. Design-build proposals are due by September 10, 2024, with an optional pre-bid conference scheduled for August 29, 2024, at 11:00 AM CT at the facility's visitor parking lot. Bid proposals must include bid security of 5% or a 10% bid bond for bids exceeding $100,000, and the project is expected to be substantially completed within 250 days of the Notice to Proceed. Evaluation of proposals will follow a "best value" selection process, considering both technical factors and pricing, with liquidated damages of $800 per day for late substantial completion and $400 per day for late final completion.

While no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on respondents were explicitly outlined in the procurement documents, the contract will require compliance with South Dakota resident contractor requirements. The project involves four different roofing section alternates, suggesting potential flexibility in scope. Contractors will need to provide performance and payment bonds and meet standard state contracting terms and conditions. The project is located in Day County and will require detailed technical expertise in roof design and construction, particularly for a 20-year warrantable roof system. No specific budget range or award value was disclosed in the available documents, and no incumbent vendors were identified. The procurement emphasizes technical competence, with a focus on designing and constructing a permanent, code-compliant roof replacement that meets all regulatory standards and provides long-term durability.
