Siding and Window Replacement

Klamath County, through the Eddyville Charter School, is seeking bids for a Siding and Window Replacement project for the main school building. The procurement is a phased construction project involving the comprehensive removal and replacement of existing windows, siding, trim, and associated building elements. The project is structured as a multi-phase initiative, with the current solicitation focusing on Phase 1. Bidders are required to submit a 10% bid security and comply with Oregon's prevailing wage regulations. Mandatory qualifications include maintaining a drug testing program and having the capability to coordinate with the school to minimize disruption during construction. The bid documents specify that contractors must provide performance and payment bonds, and the school reserves the right to negotiate with the lowest responsive bidder if cost estimates are exceeded. Key procurement dates include a mandatory pre-bid conference on September 23, 2022, from 9:00 am to 11:00 am, with bids due by 2:00 pm on September 30, 2022. A public bid opening will occur immediately after the submission deadline.

The contract opportunity appears to have a preference for Oregon resident bidders, with evaluation criteria potentially giving priority to local contractors. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged businesses are explicitly mentioned, the procurement documents indicate a potential preference for local vendors. The project does not list incumbent vendors, and no specific budget range is disclosed in the available documentation. Contractors will need to coordinate with the school for temporary removal of mechanical and electrical items, with the potential for separate contractor engagement for any required asbestos abatement. Background checks and fingerprinting will be mandatory for all personnel working on the project site during school hours, with documentation to be provided to the school prior to commencing work. The architectural drawings and specifications provide detailed guidance for the renovation, which covers both exterior siding replacement and window installations across multiple project phases.
