EWEB ITB 22-218-PW Leaburg Homes Roof Repair

The Eugene Water & Electric Board (EWEB) has issued an Invitation to Bid (ITB 22-218-PW) for roof repair services targeting four residential homes located in the Leaburg area within Lane County, Oregon. The procurement seeks a roofing contractor to perform comprehensive roof repairs, including shingle roof replacement and addressing a small section of flat roofing. Minimum contractor qualifications mandate a minimum of five years of continuous roofing construction experience and full compliance with Bureau of Labor and Industries (BOLI) and Construction Contractors Board (CCB) requirements. A voluntary pre-bid meeting was conducted on December 16, 2022, at 45210 McKenzie Hwy in Springfield, with sealed bids due by 2:00 PM PT on December 22, 2022. EWEB plans to issue a Notice to Proceed on December 29, 2022, with project requirements including Substantial Completion within 60 days and Final Completion within 90 days of contract execution. Bidders must submit a 10% bid bond of the total bid price, and the contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. The project is subject to State Historic Preservation Office (SHIPO) requirements and involves roof-to-wall flashing replacement.

EWEB actively encourages contracting with minority, women, and emerging small businesses, demonstrating a commitment to diverse vendor participation. The estimated budget for this project ranges between $150,000 and $200,000, providing potential contractors with a clear understanding of the financial scope. While no incumbent vendors were explicitly identified, the procurement process emphasizes contractor flexibility, including potential timeline extensions due to weather conditions. The project allows contractor access to home interiors during construction, with the understanding that certain elements like chimney counter-flashing will be handled under a separate contract. Bidders must be registered and bonded with the Oregon Construction Contractors Board and demonstrate the capability to meet the specific technical requirements of the roofing repair project. The procurement allows for adaptation to potential weather-related challenges and incorporates historical preservation considerations, making it a nuanced and comprehensive contracting opportunity for qualified roofing professionals.
