Exterior Building Improvements

The New Kent County Department of Public Utilities is requesting bids for exterior building improvements at the Reclaimed Water Distribution Facility in Providence Forge, Virginia under IFB 26-2109PU, with sealed bids due October 8, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. and a self-guided site inspection on September 23, 2026 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

The scope encompasses restoration and improvements to two buildings: a computer laboratory and a storage building. Work includes installation of new charcoal asphalt roofing with a minimum 25-year lifespan, vinyl siding, PVC fascia and soffit, and aluminum gutters with leaf guards on both structures. The contractor must obtain all necessary permits, provide protective measures for existing improvements, restore any damaged areas to original condition, and perform continuous site cleanup throughout construction.

The initial contract term is 90 days from execution for project completion, followed by a three-year on-call and emergency-services period. Bids must be submitted in duplicate as a lump sum price inclusive of all labor, equipment, materials, overhead, and profit. Award goes to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Bidders must submit a Bid Summary Form (Appendix A), Vendor Data Sheet (Attachment B) with a minimum of four references from current or recent commercial or governmental accounts servicing similar goods or services, and a signed Affidavit of Non-Collusion (Attachment C), along with technical literature on materials. Failure to provide a complete Vendor Data Sheet may render the bid nonresponsive.

The DPU reserves the right to waive informalities, reject any or all bids in whole or in part, and reject conditional bids. This procurement allows cooperative purchasing under Virginia Code Section 2.2-4304; other public bodies may utilize the resulting contract if modified in writing with contractor concurrence.
