DMVA Barracks Furniture, Including Installation and Removal

The Department of Military and Veterans Affairs (DMVA) Procurement Office issued Request for Proposal (RFP) 210000001832 to procure barracks furniture services, including installation and removal. The RFP was posted on SIGMA VSS on June 1, 2021, with a proposal due date of July 6, 2021, allowing bidders a 35-day submission window. The procurement sought a qualified contractor capable of providing comprehensive furniture solutions tailored to DMVA barracks facilities, with deliverables requiring detailed responses to sections 1-12 of the Statement of Work and completion of a Vendor Questions Worksheet. The evaluation process required all bidders to achieve passing scores on both mandatory components, with the evaluation team assessing whether responses adequately addressed all required deliverables. The resulting contract award is structured as a five-year initial term with two one-year renewal options, providing flexibility for extended service delivery. Only one proposal was submitted by the deadline, submitted by MarxModa Inc. of Lansing, Michigan.

The procurement did not identify any specific set-aside designations or restrictions limiting bidder eligibility, though MarxModa Inc., the awarded contractor, was noted as not being a Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Business (SDVOB). The award recommendation for MarxModa Inc. totals $3,500,000.00, representing the estimated total contract value over the five-year initial period. The evaluation team, led by Captain George Olszewski (CFMO Resource Manager) and Greg Pawlak (Buyer Specialist), determined that MarxModa Inc. satisfied all mandatory requirements and provided satisfactory responses without identified issues. The award remains pending State Administrative Board approval, if applicable. Unsuccessful bidders may request a debriefing session through Gregory Pawlak, the Solicitation Manager, at pawlakg@michigan.gov or 517-256-2439.
