Okemos Public Schools Window Film Project

Okemos Public Schools is soliciting sealed proposals for a window film installation project across eight school buildings, including Bennett Woods Elementary, Central Elementary, Chippewa Middle School, Cornell Elementary, Edgewood Elementary, Hiawatha Elementary, Okemos High School, and Kinawa Middle School. The base bid requires installation of 3M Ultra S600 safety and security window film on exterior glass surfaces, with mandatory alternates for S800 film upgrades (both interior and exterior applications) and Impact Protection Adhesive options. The successful contractor must demonstrate Commercial General Liability insurance of $2,000,000 per occurrence, Worker's Compensation coverage at statutory limits with $500,000 employer's liability, and Comprehensive Automobile Liability of $2,000,000. Key project requirements include installation during unoccupied hours (after 3:00 PM on school days) with optional pricing for normal hours work, compliance with AIA A201-2007 General Conditions, procurement of all necessary permits and inspections, daily cleanup and waste management with a 75% salvage and recycling goal, adherence to an Indoor Air Quality Management Plan, and a one-year warranty from substantial completion. The pre-bid conference and building walkthrough occurred on November 14, 2019 at 3:00 PM, with an RFI cutoff of November 15, 2019 at 3:00 PM, sealed proposals due November 21, 2019 at 1:00 PM, and window film installation scheduled from April 6, 2020 through May 29, 2020. A 5% bid security bond is required, with the successful bidder furnishing a 100% Performance Bond and Labor & Material Payment Bond, and a 90-day bid validity period applies from the bid date.

The procurement documents do not specify set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise restrictions, or preference programs for responding contractors. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the available documentation. The project will be administered by The Christman Company as construction manager and Bergmann Associates as architect under a separate trade contract structure. No specific award value or budget range is disclosed in the provided specifications and project manual, though the comprehensive scope of work across eight school buildings and the requirement for performance and payment bonds suggest a substantial project investment.
