PA System Repairs

Comstock Public Schools, a Michigan public school district in Kalamazoo County, is requesting proposals for PA system repairs and updates across four district buildings, with proposals due October 5, 2026 at 1:00 PM.

The scope encompasses evaluation and installation of public address system equipment—outdoor horn speakers, indoor ceiling-mounted speakers, power supplies, and associated wiring—across Comstock High School, Comstock Elementary School, Comstock Middle School, and the Compass Building. Elementary requires additional outdoor speakers on east and west faces, indoor stairwell speakers, and PA extension to portable buildings. Middle School needs outdoor horn speakers on multiple building sides and nineteen indoor hallway speakers plus a cafeteria horn. High School includes twenty-five combination surface-mount and ceiling speakers with hallway and stairwell coverage and amplifier installation. Compass Building requires seventeen speakers addressing hallway and gymnasium gaps. All work must be completed during winter break (December 21, 2026 to January 1, 2027) or on alternative dates proposed by bidders that minimize disruption to students and staff. Delivery to point of use and completion of work are included in the bid; applicable excise taxes are excluded.

Bidders must submit bids sealed in envelopes marked "Bid Opening" to the Comstock Public Schools Administration Building, 6138 King Highway, Kalamazoo, Michigan 49048. Each bid requires a 10% bid bond, manufacturer's written guarantees, complete descriptive literature for any equivalent product substitutions, and a sworn, notarized conflict of interest affidavit as required by Michigan Public Acts of 2004. Bidders must certify compliance with federal and state nondiscrimination laws, provide proof of debarment status, and confirm non-participation in Iran-linked businesses per Michigan Public Act 517 of 2012. The Board of Education reserves the right to reject any or all bids. Questions should be directed to Facilities Director Sean Gillette at Sean.Gillette@ComstockPS.org; bid packets submit to Finance Director Brenda DeMott.
