Furnishing Old Jail Barn Roof Replacement

The state and local contract opportunity involves the Furnishing Old Jail Barn Roof Replacement project, specifically located in Orleans County, New York. The procurement is a request for bid (RFB) seeking a contractor to remove and replace approximately 2,300 square feet of existing metal shingle roofing on the Old Jail Barn, Cupola, and adjoining Shed. The project requires installation of 26 Gauge Steel Galvalume Victorian Style Shingles in a Horseshoe Pattern from Best Buy Metals, with specific performance requirements including a 50-year manufacturer material warranty and a 90-day warranty on repair, parts, and labor. Sealed bids will be received until 2:00 PM on September 10, 2025, with a mandatory pre-bid meeting and site tour scheduled for August 25, 2025, at 9:00 AM. The project timeline mandates completion by December 31, 2025, with the contract commencing on October 9, 2025. Contractors must provide a 5% bid security with the proposal and a performance surety bond or alternative guarantee for 100% of the contract amount. Work will be performed during standard business hours (8:00 AM to 4:30 PM Monday through Friday), and all work must comply with New York State Prevailing Wage Rates and current state, local, and federal codes, rules, and regulations.

While no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent types are explicitly mentioned in the documentation, the contract requires significant technical and financial capabilities from potential contractors. The contractor must demonstrate proficiency in roofing installation, ability to provide comprehensive warranties, and capacity to manage site protection, waste management, and material storage. The project involves a one-time purchase contract with no indication of incumbent vendors or existing infrastructure requiring integration. Although a specific budget range is not provided, the requirement for a performance surety bond covering 100% of the contract amount suggests a substantial project value. Contractors will need to possess appropriate insurance, meet municipal contract provisions, and have experience with historical building restoration and roofing replacement. The project's detailed specifications and strict compliance requirements indicate a complex procurement process that demands high-level professional roofing expertise and substantial financial stability from potential bidders.
