Mill creek warehouse racking project

The Mill Creek Warehouse Racking Project is a public procurement opportunity issued by the Oregon Department of Administrative Services (DAS) for a high-bay steel storage rack system relocation project. The project requires the comprehensive breakdown and removal of an existing storage rack system currently located at 26755 SW 95th Ave. in Wilsonville, Oregon, and its subsequent reinstallation at the Mill Creek Corporate Center in Salem, Oregon. Contractors must provide all necessary labor, materials, supervision, transportation, and permits to complete the work, which involves carefully dismantling, transporting, and reinstalling shelving components with specific configuration requirements. The project was formally solicited through an Invitation to Bid (ITB) No. S-10700-00000521, with key dates including a mandatory pre-bid conference on November 1, 2021, and bid submissions due by November 23, 2021, at 2:00 PM Pacific time. Bidders were required to submit their proposals through the OregonBuys eProcurement system, with evaluation based on responsiveness and the lowest bid price. The project has a substantial completion timeline of 56 calendar days and a final completion deadline of 70 calendar days from the Notice to Proceed, with liquidated damages of $200 per day for missed deadlines.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly detailed in the procurement documents. The project does not indicate a preference for minority-owned or small businesses. The Notice of Intent to Award reveals that Sunwater Solar, Inc. was selected as the winning bidder with a bid of $178,500.00, which falls within the project's estimated budget range of $250,000-$260,000. The contract requires the successful bidder to provide performance and payment bonds, comply with prevailing wage rates, and submit a COVID-19 Vaccination Compliance Form as mandated by Executive Order 21-29. Contractors must certify that all workers on the project site are fully vaccinated against COVID-19 or have approved medical or religious exceptions. The project involves storing emergency supplies and will utilize existing shelving components, with specific requirements for width, height, and shelf configuration at the new Mill Creek Warehouse location in Marion County, Oregon.
