Gym Floors Replacement

Bulloch County Schools is seeking qualified contractors for a comprehensive gym floor replacement project at William James Middle School and Langston Chapel Middle School in Georgia. The procurement involves completely removing existing Omnisports vinyl flooring and urethane pad, and installing new Tarkett Tarkolay moisture barrier slip sheet with Omnisports Active + 8.1 mm vinyl flooring in golden maple. The base bid requires removing and reinstalling retractable bleachers on both home and visitor sides, with an alternate option for a blue surrounding floor area and golden maple main court. Contractors must comply with all manufacturer requirements, including warranties, certifications, and performance standards. A mandatory pre-bid meeting is scheduled for January 7, 2025, with specific times for each school location, and bids are due by January 22, 2025, at 2:00 PM, with a public bid opening at 2:10 PM. The project must be completed between June 1, 2025, and July 22, 2025. Qualified installers must have a minimum of five years of experience and have completed at least five similar projects.

The solicitation does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Contractors are required to provide performance and payment bonds equal to 100% of the contract sum and maintain specified insurance coverage, including $1 million per occurrence in general liability. While no incumbent vendors are mentioned, the bid requires detailed pricing for both base and alternate proposals, with all prices to remain firm for the project duration. Pricing must comprehensively include all materials, labor, equipment, insurance, bonding, disposal, freight, warranties, and associated costs. The project appears to be focused on facility improvement for two middle schools within Brooks County, Georgia, suggesting a localized procurement opportunity with potential value in the mid-to-high five-figure range, depending on the specific scope and square footage of the gym floor replacements.
