Fpcm-hdsp-i-001066-PH2-022-RS complete roofing system

The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) is seeking a product-only procurement for a complete roofing system replacement at High Desert State Prison in Susanville, CA. The invitation for bid (IFB) specifically covers roof replacement materials for C-Yard Buildings 342, 343, and 344, involving approximately 31,166 square feet of roofing per building. The project requires a thermoplastic PVC membrane roofing system, including sheet metal, adhesives, sealants, and associated materials with stringent technical specifications. Bidders must provide detailed materials lists with quantities, unit pricing, and brand/model information, and are required to deliver a 10-year full system warranty with no dollar limit. Key technical requirements include an FM I-120 wind uplift rating, UL Class A fire rating, 80-mil thick white PVC membrane, and R-30 insulation value using extruded polystyrene. The mandatory site walk-through is scheduled for November 21, 2024, at 9:00 AM, with gate clearance information due by November 12, 2024, and final bids due on December 17, 2024, at 2:00 PM. Notably, this is a materials-only procurement, with the State handling the actual installation.

The procurement includes preferences and incentives for California certified small businesses and disabled veteran business enterprises (DVBE), with potential incentive percentages ranging from 1-5% based on DVBE participation levels. The contract will be awarded on an "all or none" basis, meaning bidders must be prepared to supply materials for all specified buildings. Delivery of materials will require careful coordination with prison staff, potentially necessitating secure perimeter access and adherence to strict institutional protocols. While no specific total contract value is disclosed, the project involves roofing materials for three substantial buildings, suggesting a significant procurement opportunity. All exposed fasteners in inmate-accessible areas must be tamperproof, reflecting the specialized security requirements of a correctional facility. Bidders will need to demonstrate technical expertise in institutional roofing systems, provide comprehensive documentation, and submit to rigorous testing requirements, including water testing and Electronic Field Vector Mapping (EFVM) testing of the completed roof system.
