Professional Painting Services at the Glen Burnie MVA - Building A

The Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA) is seeking professional painting services for Building A at its Glen Burnie facility through a Small Business Reserve (SBR) Invitation for Bid (IFB) numbered V-HQ-25082-M. The procurement involves comprehensive painting services, including surface preparation and coating application across various interior substrates such as concrete, concrete masonry units, steel, galvanized metal, wood, and gypsum board. Contractors will be responsible for providing all necessary labor, materials, equipment, and insurance to complete the painting project, which must be performed outside of normal business hours to minimize disruption to MVA operations. A mandatory pre-bid conference and site visit is scheduled for April 25, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. at the MVA facility, with bid submissions due on May 12, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. The contract will have a duration of 30 days from the Notice to Proceed, and the award will be made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Evaluation will focus on bid price, compliance with technical specifications, and adherence to the environmental and contractual requirements outlined in the accompanying documents.

This procurement is exclusively reserved for certified small businesses, with no Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) or Veteran Small Business Enterprise (VSBE) subcontracting goals. The project does not involve federal funding and will be governed by the Maryland Department of Transportation's General Conditions for Maintenance Contracts, which establishes comprehensive operational guidelines and contractual terms. Contractors must also strictly adhere to the Environmental Compliance Handbook, which requires detailed documentation and compliance with environmental regulations, including proper handling of materials, waste disposal, and potential hazardous substance management. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the procurement appears to be a firm fixed-price contract focused on achieving high-quality painting services at the Glen Burnie MVA facility. Potential bidders must demonstrate technical capability, understanding of environmental compliance requirements, and ability to complete the work within the specified 30-day timeframe without disrupting ongoing MVA operations.
