(DSU) is requesting estimates/quotes to replace the carpet in the Sodexo & Dining Area

Dickinson State University (DSU) is seeking estimates and quotes for a carpet replacement project in the Sodexo Dining Area, with a specific request to remove and replace 4,230 square feet of carpet tile and 360 linear feet of cove base. The procurement opportunity, identified as solicitation number 111.5-6-11-025, is open to vendors who can provide comprehensive carpet tile replacement services for the university's facility located in Dickinson, North Dakota. Potential vendors may submit proposals via mail, email to trent.myran@dickinsonstate.edu, or through the State Procurement Office (SPO) Online system. The solicitation establishes a question submission deadline of June 18, 2025, and a proposal due date of June 20, 2025. Award criteria will focus on selecting the lowest responsible vendor, with evaluation considerations including conformity to specifications, delivery terms, quality, and overall serviceability. DSU will assess pricing based on unit prices and expects vendors to provide delivered prices (F.O.B. Destination), with the university maintaining the right to inspect all materials and workmanship throughout the project.

The procurement opportunity appears to be open to all qualified vendors, with North Dakota preference laws potentially influencing vendor selection for out-of-state respondents. The university will not pay sales tax and anticipates potential payment via government credit card, with a standard payment timeline of 45 calendar days following receipt of a correct invoice. While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed, the solicitation suggests a competitive bidding process that welcomes qualified contractors capable of meeting the precise carpet replacement specifications. The procurement is situated within Stutsman County and represents a focused infrastructure improvement project for Dickinson State University. Although a specific budget range is not provided in the documentation, the scope of work involves replacing carpet in a dining area, which implies a moderate-scale renovation project. The university reserves comprehensive rights in the procurement process, including the ability to reject any or all proposals and to make awards that best serve its institutional needs.
