Improvements at Eastern Carolina State Veterans Cemetery

The North Carolina Department of Military and Veterans Affairs is soliciting sealed bids for improvements at Eastern Carolina State Veterans Cemetery, with proposals due August 27, 2026 at 3:00 p.m., and a pre-bid meeting and site visit scheduled for August 4, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. at 164 Longs Plant Farm Road, Goldsboro, North Carolina.

The scope includes installation of new underground pre-placed crypts and associated site improvements as detailed in contract documents. General contractors must hold proper North Carolina licensing classification for unlimited general construction. Bidders must submit the Identification of Minority Business Participation form and either Affidavit A or B with proposals; failure to complete these forms is grounds for bid rejection.

All bids must be lump sum proposals for single prime contracts. Each proposal requires a cash deposit or certified check equal to not less than 5% of the bid amount, or a bid bond of 5% executed by a North Carolina-licensed surety company. A performance bond and payment bond equal to 100% of the contract price will be required. Payment will be made based on 95% of monthly estimates with final payment upon completion and acceptance of work.

Complete plans and specifications are available for inspection at the NC Department of Administration, RND Architects PA, and plan rooms across the state. Qualified prime bidders may obtain printed documents upon deposit of $250.00 (fully refundable within ten days post-bid). Electronic PDF versions are available free from Jennifer MacDonald at RND Architects PA (Jennifer@RNDpa.com; 919-490-1266). Questions are due before the pre-bid meeting. No bid may be withdrawn for 60 days after bid closing. The owner reserves the right to reject any or all bids and waive informalities.
