Locksmith Services at Ft. Payne NGA

The State of Alabama Office of the Chief Procurement Officer is seeking bids for locksmith services to diagnose and repair locks and doors at Fort Sequoyah in Fort Payne, Alabama (DeKalb County), with proposals due June 10, 2026. A mandatory site visit is scheduled for Friday, June 5, 2026 at 1:00 p.m. at 4206 Gault Avenue North, Fort Payne, AL 35967.

The scope involves two primary tasks: troubleshooting and repairing the North Entry door, which currently will not lock when closed, and replacing the keypad entry handle with a standard pull handle; and troubleshooting the Supply Room door, which frequently fails to latch when closed due to a security concern. All bids must include the total cost of labor, materials, special equipment, and miscellaneous charges in a single lump sum.

The resulting contract may be renewed annually by written agreement up to a total contract cost of $25,000 or a maximum time period of five years from the effective date. Vendors must be registered in Alabama Buys and submit responses electronically through that platform. The State of Alabama reserves the right to conduct cost realism and price reasonableness analysis on bids at the Chief Procurement Officer's sole discretion. If material or labor costs significantly increase during performance through no fault of the supplier, price increase requests may be considered but cannot exceed increases in industry-specific price indices or the Consumer Price Index and are capped at 5 percent of the annual contract cost.

Suppliers must comply with Alabama's E-Verify requirements, foreign registration requirements, and tax certification requirements; failure to provide E-Verify documentation within five calendar days of notification will result in bid rejection. The State is exempt from sales tax and vendors must accept multiple forms of electronic payment at no additional cost.
