Interior Finish Updates

The state and local contract opportunity is an Invitation to Bid (ITB) for Interior Finish Updates located in Northport, Michigan, spanning Kent County and New Haven Village. The procurement seeks a single prime contractor to complete comprehensive interior renovation work, including floor finishes, casework, painting, locker installations, limited ceiling work, and associated mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) modifications. The project requires full demolition and preparation for new material installation, with the primary objective of completing all renovations before the 2019-2020 school year. A mandatory pre-bid site visit is scheduled for March 21, 2019, at 10:00 A.M., and sealed bids are due by 4:00 p.m. local time on Wednesday, April 3, 2019. Bidders must submit a 5% bid security with their proposal and are required to provide sworn and notarized disclosure statements regarding familial relationships with school officials and Iran Economic Sanction Act certification. The evaluation will be based on the submitted lump sum bid, with the contract anticipated to be awarded during the April 2019 board meeting.

There are no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on organizational respondents mentioned in the documentation. Bidders must be prepared to provide 100% performance, labor, and material payment bonds if selected. The project is not subject to Michigan prevailing wage rate requirements. Bidding documents will be available from Traverse Reproduction & Supply for a non-refundable fee starting March 18, 2019. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the interior updates suggests a substantial investment in school infrastructure improvements. The Northport Public Schools reserves the right to reject any and all bids, maintaining flexibility in the procurement process. Potential contractors should be prepared for immediate project initiation following the contract award and must have the capability to complete the renovations before the start of the 2019-2020 school year.
