Roof Rehabilitation & Replacement

Lake Region State College, located in Devils Lake, North Dakota, is soliciting proposals for a comprehensive roof rehabilitation and replacement project covering approximately 134,000 square feet of EPDM roofing. The Request for Proposal (RFP) seeks a qualified contractor to perform extensive roof restoration using a fully reinforced liquid applied membrane. Key project requirements include removing wet insulation, repairing perimeter failures, addressing drainage issues, sealing and flashing roof components, and applying a two-coat polyurethane elastomeric fluid-applied roofing system. A mandatory site inspection is scheduled for August 4, 2025, at 12:00 PM CT, with proposals due by August 15, 2025, at 12:00 PM CT. The evaluation will be conducted on a 100-point scale, with 60 points allocated to the technical proposal (40 points for Scope of Work Strategy and 20 points for Experience and Qualifications) and 40 points for the cost proposal. Contractors must have a full-time on-site supervisor with a minimum of three years' experience installing similar products, and the project requires a 25-year No Dollar Limit (NDL) Labor and Materials Warranty from the manufacturer.

The contract, anticipated to run from September 1, 2025, until August 1, 2026, will be funded through existing appropriated funds, with the state holding a sales tax exemption number E-5421. The basis of design product is the Tremco AlphaGuard MTS System, which includes specific performance requirements such as low VOC content and accelerated weathering resistance. While the RFP does not explicitly mention set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises, it emphasizes the need for highly qualified contractors with specific technical expertise. The project is located in Pembina County and involves critical infrastructure rehabilitation for Lake Region State College. Although a specific budget range is not disclosed, the comprehensive nature of the roof restoration project suggests a substantial investment in campus infrastructure maintenance and improvement.
