Project #26002 Asbestos Abatement Services

The Housing Authority of Clackamas County (HACC) in Oregon City, Oregon is issuing an Invitation for Bids for asbestos abatement services funded through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Capital Fund Program. This procurement seeks contractor services to perform asbestos abatement of flooring, wall, and ceiling texture at various HACC-owned dwellings on an as-needed basis through a "not to exceed" contract structure with no guaranteed minimum workload. Bidders must submit unit prices as detailed in the bid form, with evaluation based on the lowest responsive responsible bidder considering contract price, contractor qualifications, firm experience, project management approach, and references. Qualified contractors must be registered with the State of Oregon Business Registry, not debarred or suspended, and must demonstrate relevant experience in rehabilitation/modernization projects, experience working with housing authorities or public agencies, and proven capacity to manage multiple project work sites. Written questions must be submitted by June 3, 2026 at 2:00 PM, with bids due by June 10, 2026 at 2:00 PM and public opening and reading of bids occurring at 2:01 PM on the same date. The contract will be effective from July 1, 2026 through July 1, 2028. A certified check, bank draft, U.S. Government bonds, or bid bond equal to five percent of the bid must accompany each submission, and the successful contractor must provide a performance and payment bond equal to 100 percent of the contract price.

This procurement is subject to Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirements and Section 3 economic opportunities for low and very low-income persons, which may restrict participation to certain qualified organizations meeting these federal requirements. The contract includes a 10 percent retainage provision with no interest accruing on retained amounts, and bonds or securities may not be substituted as an alternate form of retainage. No specific incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the available procurement documents. Bid documents are available exclusively through OREGON BUYS or by contacting Josh Teigen, HACC Capital Improvement Coordinator, at joshtei@co.clackamas.or.us. The specific award value or budget range is not disclosed in the procurement announcement, though the contract structure as a "not to exceed" arrangement indicates a defined ceiling amount that will be established through the bidding process.
