ITB 10667-2 Sitka Sedge Residence Renovation

The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD) is seeking bids for ITB #10667-2, a renovation and addition project for a historic single-family residence located at the Sitka Sedge State Natural Area in Polk County, Oregon. The project involves a 500-square-foot addition to the existing structure, including a primary bedroom, family room, mudroom, and dining area, along with comprehensive interior renovations to the kitchen, bathroom, and secondary spaces. The scope encompasses multiple construction disciplines including site work, selective demolition, concrete work, framing, carpentry, weather barriers, insulation, roofing, siding, plumbing, mechanical, and electrical systems upgrades. A voluntary pre-bid conference was held on December 17, 2024, with bids due on December 31, 2024, at 2:00 PM. The project requires substantial completion by June 10, 2025, and final completion by June 18, 2025, with liquidated damages of $500 per day for missed deadlines. Bidders must comply with Oregon prevailing wage rates, provide performance and payment bonds equal to 100% of the contract amount, and submit a First-Tier Subcontractor Disclosure Form within two hours after bid closing.

The project has a total estimated budget of $300,000, funded through state General Obligation Bonds, with bid pricing structured to include a base bid and seven potential alternates covering variations in roofing, walkways, bathroom fixtures, cabinetry, countertops, water heaters, and HVAC configurations. No specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly mentioned in the procurement documents. The project requires careful coordination with an archaeological monitor due to the site's potential cultural resources, and contractors must follow historic preservation requirements as the building is eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. Three companies were noted as attending the pre-bid conference: Kirby Nagelhout, Suite Additions, and Blue Spruce Builders. The bid includes a requirement for unit pricing on specific items like excavation, rock removal, backfill, and landscape seeding. Contractors must provide all temporary facilities, including power, lights, heat, telephone, potable water, and portable toilets, as part of their comprehensive bid package.
