Exterior Siding Replacement at Dietrich Road Apartments

Opportunity Home San Antonio (Housing Authority of the City of San Antonio, Texas) is requesting sealed bids for exterior siding replacement and associated repairs at Dietrich Road Apartments, 4618 Dietrich Road, San Antonio, Texas 78219, with bids due June 22, 2026. This is a HUD-funded project subject to prevailing wage requirements and Section 3 program compliance — both decision-flipping constraints for contractor eligibility and cost structure.

Section 3 compliance requires prime contractors to submit a Section 3 Program Utilization Plan at bid. The plan must demonstrate that 25% or more of total labor hours are performed by Section 3 Workers, with 5% or more by Targeted Section 3 Workers (current public housing or Section 8 residents, or YouthBuild participants). Subcontracting goals require 10% of construction contract value be awarded to Section 3 Business Concerns (at least 51% owned and controlled by low or very low-income individuals, or at least 51% owned by public housing/Section 8 residents). Contractors failing to meet minimum benchmarks must document good faith efforts including solicitation of certified vendors, pre-bid conference attendance, and outreach to support agencies. Monthly Section 3 Performance Reports are required during performance; non-compliance constitutes material breach and may result in contract termination and debarment.

The scope encompasses complete removal and replacement of exterior siding, repair of underlying structural elements, and installation of new siding systems to restore the building envelope. Prevailing wage rates apply to all labor classifications and skill levels; detailed wage determination schedules are provided in the attached Wage Determination document.

Bidders must submit a firm profile and qualification form (Attachment C) documenting company organization, Texas project experience, full-time staff count, proposed subcontractors, and debarment status. MBE and WBE certifications are required if claimed. All contractors must certify non-collusive bidding and compliance with OSHA, Equal Employment Opportunity, immigration, ADA, tax, insurance, and fair housing requirements. Award will be made to the lowest responsive bid meeting all specifications and requirements.
