Remodel Telfair CDC & Conference Room

The Telfair County Board of Commissioners is issuing a Request for Proposal (RFP 2025_CDC_01) for the remodel of the Community Development Center and Conference Room, representing a comprehensive renovation project across multiple facility areas. The scope of work includes full remodeling of the conference room with new sheetrock, drop ceiling with 2x2 acoustical tiles, new A/C ductwork, LED dimmable lighting, carpet tiles, built-up stage with electrical access, and wall outlets; kitchen renovation encompassing ceiling repairs, new LED lighting, flooring, cabinet refinishing, and new Formica countertops; hallway renovation with LED lighting, carpet tiles, base cove, water fountain replacement, and interior painting; remodeling of three ADA-compliant public restrooms and two storage rooms with flooring installation; installation of wood trim around new interior windows; new exterior siding; replacement of all exterior wooden doors with FRP doors and interior doors with 6-panel wood doors; and re-keying of all doors. Qualified bidders must be licensed and insured Georgia general contractors with demonstrated experience on similar public or commercial renovation projects and must provide references for comparable work. A mandatory pre-bid meeting and site inspection is scheduled for July 24, 2025, at 10:00 AM, with attendance required for bid eligibility. Sealed proposals must be submitted by August 4, 2025, at 3:00 PM EST, with the selected contractor required to begin work by August 11, 2025, and complete the project no later than December 31, 2025. All bidders must provide a 5% bid bond and performance bond, maintain workers' compensation insurance, commercial general liability insurance of $1,000,000, business auto insurance, and contractor's pollution liability insurance of $1,000,000. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsible bidder meeting all specifications, with proposals remaining valid for a minimum of 60 days and payment made monthly upon completion of items or within thirty days of final invoice receipt.

The RFP does not specify set-aside designations or restrictions limiting responses to particular types of organizations or disadvantaged enterprises. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the procurement documentation. The RFP does not list a specific budget range or award value, with the contract to be awarded to the lowest responsible bidder meeting all technical and financial specifications. All materials must be new and of latest design in first quality condition, and the contractor must obtain all necessary permits before beginning construction and perform work during regular business hours unless otherwise approved. Asbestos abatement has already been completed prior to this RFP, eliminating that requirement from the contractor's scope of work.
