Old Stone Fort S. P. Lift Station Repairs

The Tennessee Department of Environment & Conservation is seeking bids for renovation and repair services at Old Stone Fort State Park located in Claiborne County, through a Request for Bids (RFB) issued by the Central Procurement Office. The project encompasses comprehensive rehabilitation work including lift station repairs, roof flashing and stonework restoration, and replacement of windows and exterior doors. Specific requirements mandate that contractors possess an active BC-B or higher Tennessee Building Contractor license with CE, MC, and MU classifications. A mandatory pre-bid meeting is scheduled for November 12, 2025, at 10:00 AM CST at the park's visitor center in Manchester, Tennessee, with bid submissions accepted from November 6, 2025, at 8:00 AM CST through November 21, 2025, at 2:00 PM CST. Contractors must submit bids through the EDISON supplier portal system in U.S. dollars, with all work to be completed by November 26, 2025, and the overall project timeline extending to March 16, 2026. Evaluation will focus on compliance with licensing requirements, documentation of sales tax registration, and overall bid responsiveness.

The solicitation does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Bidders must be registered with the Tennessee Department of Revenue and confirm that all employees, subcontractors, and laborers hold necessary business and professional licenses. For bids exceeding $100,000, a payment bond equal to 25 percent of the contract price is required, and comprehensive insurance documentation must be provided, including workers' compensation, commercial general liability, and automobile liability coverage. While specific budget details are not extensively outlined, the project is expected to exceed $100,000, which triggers competitive bidding requirements under Tennessee Code. Subcontracting is permitted but requires prior written approval from the Central Procurement Office, and the contractor assumes full responsibility for all work performance.
