Kenosha County, Wisconsin is seeking bids for the Brookside Care Center Kitchen Flooring Project, a comprehensive renovation of the kitchen and dishwashing areas located at 3506 Washington Road. The procurement involves replacing approximately 1,772 square feet of existing flooring with three alternate options: resilient flooring (base bid), polished concrete, or ceramic tile, with optional wall and ceiling painting. Bidders must be manufacturers, distributors, or dealers authorized to sell and install flooring products, with a minimum of five years of experience in kitchen flooring replacement. The project requires a detailed bid submission, including a 5% bid bond, and contractors must provide comprehensive insurance coverage including commercial general liability, automobile liability, and workers' compensation. A mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for August 6, 2025, at 9:30 AM, with final bids due on August 27, 2025, at 1:00 PM. The county will evaluate bids based on price, delivery timeliness, project qualifications, and overall responsiveness, with the intent to award to the lowest responsible bidder.

There are no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on respondents mentioned in the procurement documents. Contractors must complete a Vendor Responsibility Questionnaire, which requires disclosure of business characteristics, contract history, certifications, legal history, and financial capacity. The project involves temporary relocation of kitchen equipment to a designated garage building and requires coordination with county maintenance staff for equipment movement and system reconnections. Contractors must provide a one-year warranty for workmanship and materials. While a specific budget range is not explicitly stated, the project involves comprehensive renovation including equipment removal, plumbing and electrical disconnects, and potential wall repainting. The contract will begin immediately upon award and continue until project completion, with progress payments including a 5% retainage. Kenosha County reserves the right to request additional information and to reject any or all bids.
