Modular office building purchase (supply and install)

The New Hampshire Department of Administrative Services, Division of Procurement and Support Services, is seeking to procure and install two modular office buildings for the New Hampshire Department of Transportation, located in Twin Mountain, NH. The procurement, identified as Bid 16-25, requires the successful vendor to supply gray or tan colored, insulated modular office buildings with bathrooms, complete with delivery and installation within 30 calendar days of contract award. A mandatory pre-bid site visit was required for potential vendors, and the bid will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. The original bid closing date of August 29, 2024, was amended to September 5, 2024, at 10:00 AM Eastern Time, with the last day for questions and clarifications set for August 28, 2024. Key deliverables include specification sheets detailing the modular buildings, which must include bathrooms and meet specific installation requirements, including tie-in to an existing on-site septic system and connection to a new overhead electric service. The Department of Transportation will be responsible for acquiring necessary building permits.

The solicitation does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Nine vendors were initially solicited for this opportunity, with two bids ultimately received. Nadler Modular submitted the lower bid at $171,000.00, compared to Triumph Modular's bid of $246,356.00. The contract will be non-exclusive, and the State reserves the right to award to multiple vendors if deemed in its best interest. The procurement includes environmentally preferable product considerations and prohibits additional surcharges or fuel charges. Payment will be processed via ACH method, and the contract will be executed through a purchase order. No incumbent vendor information was provided, and the bid documents indicate that the modular buildings will integrate with existing infrastructure at the Twin Mountain location. The total procurement budget appears to be in the range of $171,000 to $246,356, with the contract pending final Department of Transportation approval.
