About this opportunity
The Allentown Housing Authority is soliciting bids for the Scattered Site Home Ownership Renovation Project Phase 2, a comprehensive housing renovation initiative involving properties at 174 Gordon Street and 404-406 N Fair Street. This federally assisted procurement seeks contractors to complete extensive renovation work on residential properties, with detailed specifications outlined in multiple bid documents and addenda. The project requires full compliance with federal housing and construction standards, with a specific focus on rehabilitation and preparation for home ownership. A pre-bid meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, August 6, 2025, at 10:00 AM at 1339 W. Allen Street in Allentown, PA, with site visits immediately following the brief introduction. Interested firms must submit electronic proposals via The PennBid Program by Wednesday, August 20, 2025, at 11:00 AM. Written questions can be submitted through the PennBid platform's "Clarifications" feature by Wednesday, August 13, 2025, with responses provided to all bidders by Friday, August 15, 2025.
The procurement emphasizes strict compliance with multiple federal equal employment opportunity requirements, including Executive Order 11246 with specific employment goals of 6.9% female and 1.3% minority representation by craft. The project mandates adherence to several key federal regulations: Executive Order 11625 regarding Minority Business Enterprises, Executive Order 12138 for Women Business Enterprises, Section 3 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968, and the Civil Rights Act of 1964. While specific budget details are not provided, the Housing Authority reserves the right to accept or reject any proposals and may withhold award for up to 60 days. The procurement appears designed to encourage participation from disadvantaged business enterprises, minority-owned businesses, and women-owned businesses. Prospective bidders must demonstrate capabilities in residential renovation, understanding of federal housing standards, and commitment to inclusive hiring practices. All proposals will be evaluated based on compliance with detailed specifications, technical capabilities, and alignment with federal housing renovation requirements.
