GBA-198B-MW Complete Millwork Package Vendors RFQ

The Georgia State Financing and Investment Commission, on behalf of the Georgia Department of Corrections, is soliciting statements of qualifications from millwork vendors to pre-qualify for a complete millwork package on Project No. GBA-198B, a new state prison facility in Davisboro, Georgia, with SOQs due November 4, 2026. Georgia's reciprocal preference law grants preference to in-state proposers with a place of business and employees within Georgia; the RFQ encourages participation by minority-owned, woman-owned, and small business enterprises.

Vendors must hold current Georgia business registration, Commercial General Liability Insurance with minimum limits of $1 million per occurrence and $10 million commercial umbrella coverage, a current ratio of 1.0 or higher, and a worker's compensation Experience Modification Rating of 1.2 or less. The scope spans design, delivery, and installation of fully-integrated modular and built-in casework, including countertops and cabinets across administration, housing, education, medical, maintenance, and support facilities. Millwork must meet specified material requirements—solid surface countertops, HPL plastic laminate cabinetry, phenolic material for inmate areas, marine-grade materials for wet areas, and metal casework—and comply with ADA accessibility guidelines and support up to 350 pounds of additional weight per application.

The Selection Committee evaluates qualifications using 45% experience and qualifications (relevant project experience, complexity, size, function, and state agency familiarity), 25% stability (corporate history, growth, litigation, financials), and 30% suitability (phased installation capability and quality assurance plans). Qualified vendors will receive an Invitation to Bid in February 2027, followed by a remote pre-bid meeting with finalists in February 2027 and bid submission in March 2027. Installation runs June 2027 through February 2028, with material completion required within twelve months of construction commencing in April or May 2027.
