Soccer Fence Project

The State of Michigan, through Bay County and Pentwater Village, is seeking proposals for the Soccer Fence Project. The Request for Proposal (RFP) outlines the installation of approximately 1,700 feet of 4-foot tall commercial grade chain link fencing around the soccer field at Pinconning High School. The scope of work includes one set of 10-foot double drive gates, one 4-foot walk gate, and 3-foot overlap openings on the west and north side lines. The fence materials must be galvanized and meet the specified post sizes and chain link gauge. Bidders are required to attend a voluntary pre-bid meeting on March 19, 2024, and submit their proposals by 11:00 am on March 22, 2024. The contract will be awarded to a single contractor, and the Board of Education reserves the right to reject any or all bids.

The RFP does not mention any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. However, bidders are required to provide disclosure of any familial relationships between the bidder's employees and the school district's officials, and certify that the bidder is not an "Iran Linked Business" as defined in the Iran Economic Sanctions Act. The Board of Education will award the contract based on the best interests of the district and is not required to accept the lowest bid. The RFP does not provide any information about incumbent vendors, current contractors, or a budget range for the project.
