Garage Building Guttering & Downspout Replacement & Roof Leak Repair Project

The Virginia Department of Energy is seeking bids for a Garage Building Guttering & Downspout Replacement and Roof Leak Repair Project located in Washington County. The procurement involves comprehensive repair and replacement services for guttering systems and roof components at a facility in Big Stone Gap, Virginia. Specific deliverables include removing and replacing approximately 153 linear feet of industrial guttering and downspouts along the main garage building's back wall, and 72 linear feet along two sidewalls of an auxiliary building. Additionally, the project requires roof leak repairs at multiple locations, including the main garage building, mechanics tool storage room, boiler room entrance, chimney base, and coal storage room. The solicitation is an Invitation for Bid (IFB) with a mandatory bid bond of 5% for bids exceeding $100,000. An optional pre-bid conference is scheduled for November 4, 2024, at 10:00 AM EST, with final bids due on November 27, 2024, at 11:00 AM EST. Bidders must provide unit pricing for the specified work and adhere to all technical specifications outlined in the procurement documents.

The contract is specifically set aside for DSBSD-certified small or micro businesses, which significantly restricts the pool of eligible bidders. Contractors must provide comprehensive insurance coverage, including workers' compensation, employer's liability of $100,000, and commercial general liability of $1,000,000 per occurrence with a $2,000,000 aggregate limit. While no incumbent vendor is mentioned, the project will result in the issuance of a single purchase order with applicable eVA transaction fees. The pricing schedule requires detailed unit pricing for three primary line items, with the total bid price serving as the basis for contract award. Though a specific budget range is not explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the guttering and roof repair work suggests a substantial project value. Interested bidders must carefully review the technical specifications, ensure compliance with all insurance and certification requirements, and submit precise, responsive pricing documentation by the specified deadline.
