Laboratory Casework and Work Surfaces

The West Virginia Department of Agriculture is seeking a qualified vendor to provide and install laboratory casework and work surfaces for its Moorefield Field Office located in Greenbrier County. This Centralized Request for Quote (CRFQ) requires a comprehensive procurement involving the one-time purchase and installation of laboratory-grade metal casework and black epoxy resin work surfaces for specific rooms including a PCR run room, PCR clean room, PCR extraction room, and receiving room. The successful vendor must possess a West Virginia Contractor's License and be capable of providing precise design layouts for agency approval, conducting a site visit to verify measurements, and completing a full installation of casework with specific dimensional and configuration requirements. Key deliverables include solid door cabinets, black recessed handle pulls, and work surfaces meeting exact specifications across multiple laboratory spaces. The solicitation requires vendor questions to be submitted by June 2, 2025, at 2:00 PM EST/EDT, with final bids due on June 9, 2025, at 1:30 PM EST/EDT. The contract will have a 120-day project period beginning upon the agency's notice-to-proceed, and the award will be made to the lowest qualified responsible bidder meeting all required specifications.

The procurement appears to have no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on vendor types, though the requirement for a West Virginia Contractor's License implies local business participation. The solicitation does not disclose an incumbent vendor or specify existing infrastructure requiring integration. While no explicit budget range is provided, the comprehensive nature of the laboratory casework installation suggests a significant capital investment. Vendors should note that the project does not include a loading dock or forklift, and the vendor will be responsible for all delivery and installation costs. Electrical and plumbing connections will remain the agency's responsibility. The procurement will be handled through a central purchase order, with the bid to be received by the Department of Administration Purchasing Division in Charleston, West Virginia. Interested vendors can contact the buyer, Larry D. McDonnell, at 304-558-2063 or larry.d.mcdonnell@wv.gov for additional information about the procurement.
