Craven Community College is requesting proposals for the procurement and turnkey installation of one four-classroom modular building at its Public Safety Training Center in New Bern, North Carolina, with proposals due November 6, 2026 at 2:00 PM Eastern Time. A non-mandatory site visit is scheduled for October 26, 2026 at 10:00 AM.

The building must be a turnkey, preferably double-wide modular structure designed for educational occupancy. It must meet North Carolina State Building Code requirements, include full ADA compliance, HVAC systems with overhead ducts, pre-installed data cabling, emergency exits, smoke detectors, and comply with all hurricane safety requirements. The vendor must either be the manufacturer or provide proof of manufacturer authorization. An alternate bid is requested for converting one classroom into four individual offices.

The proposal price constitutes the total cost for complete performance, including all handling, transportation, installation, and administrative costs, on a Free-On-Board Destination Freight Prepaid basis with no sales tax included. Delivery is anticipated within or after January 2027, pending completion of the PSTC site. The contract term extends from the effective date of execution through acceptance of the building by the college. The college reserves the right to award to the lowest responsible, responsive bidder, considering responsiveness to specifications, pricing, product quality, vendor performance history, and ability to deliver within required timeframes.

Vendors must demonstrate financial stability, carry commercial general liability insurance of $2 million combined single limit and automobile insurance of $1.5 million, and comply with North Carolina Secretary of State registration requirements within ten business days of award notification. Written questions are due October 29, 2026, with college responses provided by November 2, 2026. The college expects to award the contract by November 24, 2026.
