Old town barn roof replacement project

The Town of Lansing initiated a procurement for the Old Town Barn Roof Replacement Project, located at 104 Auburn Road in Lansing, NY. The project involves replacing the roof of the town's old barn, with a targeted contract duration of 90 days from award. Sealed bids were solicited and received by the Town Clerk's Office, with a submission deadline of October 18, 2021, at 3:00 p.m. Bidders were required to submit their proposals to the Town Hall Board meeting room, where bids would be publicly opened and read aloud by the Town Clerk or her designee. Project specifications and bidding documents were made available at the Town Clerk's Office for interested bidders. All submissions were mandated to include a certificate executed pursuant to Section 103-d of the General Municipal Law of New York State. The Town Board reserved the right to reject any or all bids submitted.

The procurement did not include a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned business set-aside, meaning all qualified contractors could potentially bid on the project. Three bidders ultimately submitted proposals: J&B Installations, Inc. with a base bid of $63,500.00, Delta DJW CMC, Inc. with a base bid of $64,500.00, and Marchuska Brothers Construction, LLC with a base bid of $79,989.00. However, on October 20th, the Lansing Town Board formally resolved to reject all received bids, effectively nullifying the procurement process. The attached bid results document provides no specific rationale for the rejection, leaving open the possibility of future re-solicitation. The project was open to vendors across all New York State counties, with the specific location being 104 Auburn Road in Lansing, NY 14882. The total project budget and future procurement strategy were not explicitly detailed in the available documentation.
