Inv. to bid Apparatus Bay Floor coating

The City of Sturgis Department of Public Safety in Michigan is seeking bids for a comprehensive floor coating replacement project targeting the apparatus bays and tank room. This procurement involves complete removal of existing floor coatings and installation of a new Sherwin-Williams High Performance Flooring (HPF) system, specifically the Resuflor Performance HTS. The technical specifications require precise surface preparation, including steel shot blasting of concrete surfaces and moisture testing with a maximum relative humidity threshold of 75 percent. Potential bidders must follow detailed installation protocols, including applying coatings at temperatures between 65-85 degrees Fahrenheit and allowing the flooring system to cure for at least one week before mechanical cleaning. The project requires multiple layers of coating, including a primer coat, broadcast coat, grout coat, build coat, and topcoat, with specific performance standards based on ASTM testing methods. The bid is due on September 15, 2025, with the invitation to bid initially posted on September 2, 2025, providing potential contractors approximately two weeks to prepare and submit their proposals.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions on vendor participation were explicitly detailed in the provided documentation. The procurement appears to be an open competitive bid without clear limitations on business size, minority status, or vendor type. While the technical specifications provide extensive detail about the required Sherwin-Williams flooring system, no information was provided about incumbent vendors or existing contractors. Similarly, no specific budget range or award value was disclosed in the available documents. The project seems focused on a targeted infrastructure improvement for the public safety facility, with an emphasis on high-performance, durable flooring solutions that can withstand the demanding environment of apparatus bays and tank rooms. Potential bidders will need to demonstrate technical expertise in high-performance resinous flooring installation, specifically with experience in municipal public safety facility renovations.
