ITQ - 5420 Frazier Pike - Carpentry

The City of Little Rock's Housing & Neighborhood Programs Department is issuing an Invitation To Quote (ITQ) for carpentry services under the Limited Home Repair (LHR) Program at 5420 Frazier Pike in Pulaski County, Arkansas. The project requires a qualified contractor to perform comprehensive carpentry work with specific performance requirements. Mandatory qualifications include two years of carpentry and rehabilitation experience, documentation of five completed projects with permits, a valid Arkansas business license, a one-year general warranty, and appropriate insurance naming the City as an additional insured. A mandatory walk-through inspection of the property is scheduled for Wednesday, December 3, 2025, at 11:30 AM, and interested contractors must submit their proposals through LRProcure by the December 5, 2025 deadline. The City will award the contract on an all-or-none basis to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with proposals required to remain valid for ninety days following bid opening.

The procurement encourages participation from small, minority, and women-owned businesses, with the opportunity for joint ventures that include such entities. Contractors new to the Rehabilitation Program are restricted to one contract in progress until successfully completing at least three contracts within a twelve-month period. Specific restrictions apply to vendors based on contract value, including certifications that they are not boycotting Israel (for contracts over $1,000), not employing illegal immigrants (for contracts over $25,000), and not boycotting specific industries like Energy, Fossil Fuel, Firearms, or Ammunition (for contracts over $75,000). While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the contract requires performance bonds and bid bonds according to Arkansas state regulations. Vendors must comply with comprehensive certification requirements and are subject to potential contract termination if they fail to meet the specified conditions or misrepresent their qualifications.
