Pewamo-Westphalia MS/HS Athletic Field & Building

Pewamo-Westphalia Community Schools is soliciting competitive bids for a comprehensive athletic field renovation and new athletic building project located in Clinton County, Michigan. The procurement includes synthetic turf football field upgrades, underground drainage improvements, electrical service enhancements, and construction of a new athletic building featuring a team multipurpose room, restrooms, locker room, meeting room, and training room. The project is Davis Bacon Compliant, requiring contractors to validate labor rates specific to Clinton County. Bidders must submit a sworn Familial Relationship Disclosure Affidavit, Iran Economic Sanctions Act Affidavit, and a 5% bid bond. Key submission dates include a pre-bid meeting originally scheduled for April 16th, with subsequent bid due dates extended through two addendums to May 9th, 2025, at 10:00 am EST. Performance Services will compile bid submissions for School Board review, which reserves the right to accept or reject any proposals. Bidding documents are accessible through a free read-only Procore account, with a public bid opening planned shortly after the submission deadline.

The contract opportunity does not explicitly specify set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or minority-owned businesses. Bidders are expected to comply with standard construction industry qualifications and provide performance and payment bonds. The project timeline anticipates contract award in May 2025, construction commencement in Summer 2025, and project completion in Spring 2026. While specific budget ranges are not detailed in the documents, the comprehensive scope suggests a significant capital investment for the school district. Technical specifications include precise construction requirements such as 3" rigid insulation at the foundation, insulation extending 2' from the wall's inside perimeter, and a minimum foundation depth of 40" below grade for frost protection. Potential bidders are advised that the School Board will evaluate submissions based on comprehensive project alignment, technical compliance, and overall value to the school's athletic and educational infrastructure.
