Painting Rec Park Buildings

Dunn County, Wisconsin is seeking bids for a painting project involving two county-owned buildings located at the Rec Park in Menomonie, at the corner of Main Street and 17th Avenue. The scope of work includes comprehensive exterior painting services, specifically pressure washing, surface preparation, priming, and applying two coats of exterior paint. The Invitation for Bid (IFB) requires vendors to submit a total cost proposal with all prices and conditions remaining fixed for 90 days from the bid due date. The mandatory site showing is scheduled for August 3, 2024, with bid submissions due by 2:00 pm CDT on August 8, 2024, and project completion required by October 31, 2024. Evaluation criteria will focus on identifying the lowest responsible and responsive bidder, with Dunn County reserving the right to accept or reject any or all bids. Bidders must disclose any pre-existing business relationships with the County that could potentially create conflicts of interest, and must provide a Certificate of Insurance with Dunn County named as an additional insured prior to commencing work.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly mentioned in the procurement documents. The project does not indicate any incumbent vendors or require integration with existing infrastructure or technology. While a specific budget range was not disclosed, the procurement is structured as a competitive bid process where vendors will provide their total cost proposal. The county is exempt from paying state sales tax but remains subject to other state taxes. Vendors are encouraged to provide recommendations on painting products, suggesting some flexibility in the technical approach. No bid bond or performance bond is required for this project, but invoices will only be approved after the work is completed to the county's satisfaction. The total project scope appears to be a straightforward exterior painting contract for two recreational park buildings, with the potential award value likely dependent on the competitive bids received.
