PANG Backflow Preventor

The Oregon Military Department has issued an Invitation to Bid (ITB) for the Portland Air National Guard Base, seeking a contractor to remove and replace a single 10" backflow device located at 6801 NE Cornfoot Road in Portland, Oregon. The project requires comprehensive infrastructure work, including installing a new Reduced Pressure Backflow Assembly (RPBA) with a hotbox and heater, performing electrical conduit work, and completing concrete and site restoration. Bidders must be registered with the Oregon Construction Contractors Board and possess a Unique Entity Identifier (UEI). The bid is due on September 11, 2025, at 1:30 PM PT, with a project timeline of 30 calendar days from the Notice to Proceed for project initiation, 90 calendar days for substantial completion, and 180 calendar days for final completion. Contractors must submit required documentation including bid security, first-tier subcontractor disclosures, and proof of insurance, with compliance mandated for prevailing wage rates, federal provisions, and various state and national regulations.

The contract appears to have no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, but requires strict adherence to non-discrimination, drug-testing, and environmental regulations. Contractors must navigate base access and security requirements, coordinating closely with base security and project management teams. The project is anticipated to be funded through a combination of state and federal funds, with a project cost estimate ranging from $55,000 to $110,000. Successful bidders will need to demonstrate comprehensive understanding of federal and state regulatory compliance, including detailed submittal and reporting obligations. The procurement is open to qualified construction contractors with appropriate credentials and the capability to execute complex infrastructure replacement and restoration work within a military installation environment.
