On Call Asbestos and Mold Services

The City of New Haven Board of Education is seeking an On-Call Asbestos and Mold Management service for its district-wide public schools through Invitation to Bid (ITB) #2025-IFB-207. The comprehensive procurement covers a range of environmental testing and compliance services, including asbestos testing, mold inspections, AHERA (Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act) inspections, air testing, and radon testing across 49 different educational facilities. Vendors must possess EPA asbestos approvals, state and federal compliance certifications, and demonstrate the ability to schedule testing within 48 hours of request. Key deliverables include periodic surveillance, three-year re-inspections, detailed reporting, and publishing of AHERA booklets. The bid was released on May 26, 2025, with a response deadline of June 19, 2025, at 5:00 pm, and specifies a one-year contract term with potential for two additional one-year renewals at the City's discretion. Evaluation will focus on comprehensive qualifications, pricing structure, and the vendor's capacity to provide flexible, high-quality environmental management services.

The procurement does not explicitly specify set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises, though the City of New Haven has demonstrated commitment to workforce equity in other contract documents. Pricing is structured with labor costs and a maximum 10% markup on materials, with vendors required to submit detailed documentation including signature sheets, disclosure affidavits, and workforce certificates. While no incumbent vendor is directly mentioned, the contract suggests a robust infrastructure requirement for managing environmental testing across multiple school locations. The specific budget range is not explicitly stated in the documents, but the detailed pricing matrix indicates unit pricing per hour for different certified professionals and per test for various environmental assessments. Contractors will be expected to provide comprehensive services across the 49 school addresses listed in the supplementary documentation, with a focus on maintaining safe environmental conditions in New Haven's public educational facilities.
