Drywall Installation for Storage Rooms

The Charter Township of Brighton, located in Kent County, Michigan, is seeking proposals through RFP #25-11 for drywall installation services at the Brighton Township Hall. The project specifically requires a qualified contractor to install new drywall in two small storage rooms and part of a hallway, with detailed specifications including the removal of existing damaged drywall, proper panel fitting and fastening, joint and seam finishing, and surface preparation for future painting. Prospective bidders must use moisture-resistant materials similar to existing drywall, apply multiple joint compound coats, and ensure a smooth, paint-ready surface. Bid proposals are due by 10:00 AM on November 18, 2025, with a site visit available by emailing Zach Dyba. The contract is anticipated to be awarded by December 15th, with work to be completed during normal business hours (7:30 AM to 5:30 PM, Monday through Thursday). Key contractor qualifications include providing three municipal references, maintaining specific insurance coverages including Workers' Compensation and Commercial General Liability with minimum $1,000,000 limits, and offering a minimum one-year workmanship warranty.

The procurement does not explicitly indicate any set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Bidders must provide contact information for any subcontractors and certify they are not an Iran Linked business. The contract includes provisions allowing the township to reject any or all bids and negotiate final contract terms. While a specific budget range is not detailed, the sample contract indicates payment will be made after work completion and acceptance, with a net 45-day payment term. The contract will be governed by Michigan state law and includes indemnification provisions, with the contractor agreeing to hold the Township harmless from any liability arising from their services. The Township reserves the right to terminate the contract with 14 days written notice, and the contractor cannot begin work without prior Township permission. Though no incumbent vendor is mentioned, the contract suggests a straightforward, project-specific engagement for drywall installation services.
