Exterior / Interior Door Replacement Bid

The City of Owosso, located in Sanilac County, Michigan, is soliciting bid proposals for an Exterior/Interior Door Replacement project at the Owosso Public Safety Building. The procurement involves removing and replacing six aluminum entry doors and frames, specifically four exterior doors (side and rear of building), one exterior front main door, and one interior door in the front main vestibule. All doors will be 3'0 x 7'0 with precise specifications including clear anodized glass, narrow stile, continuous hinges, panic hardware with exterior key cylinders, D-handle pulls, and thresholds. Bidders must disconnect and reconnect existing card readers and wiring, and ensure installation includes LCN closers, caulking, and flashing. The bid is considered "All or None", requiring vendors to submit pricing for all requested items. Sealed bids will be accepted until 3:00 p.m. on February 20, 2024, with vendors required to submit a vendor proposal, local preference affidavit, W-9 form, and signature page with legal status acknowledgment.

The procurement includes a local preference policy providing a 6% bid advantage (up to $2,500) for businesses located within Owosso city limits and a 3% bid advantage (up to $2,500) for businesses located within Shiawassee County. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are mentioned, the city reserves the right to accept or reject any proposal and may negotiate terms if it appears to be in the best interest of the city. The project appears to target general contractors or specialized door replacement firms with experience in municipal building renovations and the technical capability to handle complex door installations involving security and access control systems. No specific budget range or award value is explicitly stated in the documentation. Potential bidders should carefully review all specifications and be prepared to demonstrate technical proficiency in door replacement, electrical reconnection, and compliance with municipal building standards.
