Roofing Inspection & Repair

Wake County Public School System (WCPSS), the largest school district in North Carolina and the 15th largest in the United States serving approximately 161,000 students across 203 schools, is soliciting proposals for a Job Order Contract (JOC) to provide roofing inspection and repair services at multiple district facilities. The scope of work encompasses comprehensive roofing repair services including work on various roof material types, gutters, downspouts, flashing replacement, cap flashing, and shingle repair and replacement across WCPSS-owned, leased, or possessed properties. Pricing is structured as an hourly labor-based JOC with separate charges for materials and parts, with contractor net profit on subcontractors' rates capped at cost plus 5% and net profit on materials capped at cost plus 10%. Required submittals include vendor qualifications, years in business, office locations, staffing numbers, relevant roofing experience, and cost and price proposals. The RFP was issued on March 17, 2026, with a non-mandatory but strongly encouraged pre-proposal meeting scheduled for April 8, 2026, at 9:00 AM ET in Raleigh, North Carolina. The deadline for submitting questions is April 15, 2026, at 11:00 AM ET, with responses provided by April 17, 2026. Proposals must be submitted electronically via the Vendor Portal by April 22, 2026, at 1:00 PM ET, with public bid opening occurring on the same date and time. The contract term runs from July 1, 2026, through July 31, 2027, with WCPSS reserving the right to extend for two additional one-year periods.

Vendors must not appear on the North Carolina or Federal Government debarred vendor registries and must comply with sexual offender registry checks, E-Verify requirements, and Lunsford Act criminal background check provisions. All contractors must provide certificates of insurance prior to work commencement, including commercial general liability coverage of $1,000,000 per occurrence, commercial automobile liability of $1,000,000 combined single limit, and workers' compensation coverage at statutory limits. The contract is not subject to federal funding and cannot be used for federal purchases, which may restrict certain government-affiliated entities from utilizing the contract. No incumbent vendors or existing contractors are identified in the solicitation materials. Payment terms are structured as net not later than 30 days after invoice receipt or goods acceptance, whichever is later. No specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or minority-owned businesses are mentioned in the available documentation, nor is an estimated award value or budget range provided in the RFP.
