Renovation - MVA Largo Branch

The Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration is requesting bids on renovation services for its Largo branch facility under IFB V-LAR-27722-C, with proposals due November 13, 2026. The procurement carries mandatory MBE and VSBE participation requirements — both sets of forms must be submitted with all bids, and failure to complete them renders a bid non-responsive.

Bidders must meet specified MBE participation goals across classifications including African American-owned, Hispanic American-owned, Asian American-owned, and Women-owned firms, or request a waiver with supporting documentation within ten business days of apparent award notification. A VSBE participation goal applies; bidders unable to meet the goal must demonstrate good faith outreach efforts including identification of work items for VSBE performance, written solicitations with at least ten days' notice to certified VSBE firms prior to bid opening, follow-up contact attempts, and documentation of rejected quotes or unavailable firms. Both MBE and VSBE subcontractors must perform only work for which they are certified and cannot be retained solely for name recognition.

The scope encompasses comprehensive renovation including structural modifications, mechanical and electrical systems upgrades, plumbing work, and interior finishes. Technical specifications reference compliance with the International Building Code, National Electrical Code, and ASTM International standards. Contractors must demonstrate familiarity with detailed requirements covering HVAC systems, lighting, flooring, wall treatments, doors and frames, and site work.

Bidders must submit line-item pricing using the required bid form (Attachment B) with itemized costs for labor, materials, and equipment. All work must meet or exceed specifications outlined in the technical specification documents to be acceptable for final payment. Contract conditions, prevailing wage requirements if applicable, and additional award criteria are contained in the complete IFB package and exhibits.
