Request for Application of Roof Coating System Services

The state of Michigan, specifically involving Kent County and Lansing City, has issued a Request for Application of Roof Coating System Services, a procurement opportunity focused on comprehensive roof restoration. The contract solicits sealed bids for a specialized roof coating project, with a specific emphasis on polyurethane and silicone roof coating application. A mandatory pre-bid meeting was scheduled for November 12, 2018, at 9:00 AM, with sealed bids to be accepted until 2:00 PM on November 14, 2018. The project must be completed by June 30, 2019, with bids required to be guaranteed for 90 days from the bid opening date. Key deliverables include pressure washing existing roof membranes, applying polyurethane foam, treating seam flashings, and implementing a two-layer coating system utilizing an aromatic urethane base coat and high-solids silicone top coat. Bidders must be qualified applicators with demonstrated expertise in roof coating technologies, and bids exceeding $50,000 must include a certified check or bid bond equivalent to 5% of the base bid.

The procurement appears to be open to qualified roofing contractors without explicit set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises. The document indicates that the Lapeer County Intermediate School District (ISD) Board of Education reserves the right to accept or reject any bids and operates as a tax-exempt organization. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly detailed, the comprehensive nature of the roof coating project suggests a substantial investment, likely in the range of $50,000 to $200,000 depending on the exact scope and complexity of the roof restoration. The project involves a 35,000 square foot roof surface, which provides a general scale for potential bidders. No incumbent vendors are specifically mentioned, and there are no explicit requirements for integration with existing infrastructure beyond the specified coating application procedures. Interested contractors must carefully review the bid specifications, which outline precise material properties, application procedures, and technical requirements for the polyurethane foam and silicone coating systems.
