Station 8-2 Connex Roof Replacement

The Matanuska-Susitna Borough (MSB) Purchasing Division is soliciting competitive bids for the Station 8-2 Connex Roof Replacement project located at 18151 W Four Dog Court in Big Lake, Alaska. The procurement involves a comprehensive roof renovation and modification scope that includes demolition and removal of the existing roof structure, adding gravel fill, relocating two Connex containers, and constructing a new truss roof structure over the containers with a concrete storage slab. The project requires a 5/12 pitch truss roof utilizing 25-year black shingles, a 2-foot gable end, and 18-inch gable overhang, with specific painting requirements matching existing structures. Bidders must possess a valid Alaska Business License and Contractor's License. A mandatory pre-bid site visit is scheduled for Thursday, October 16, 2025, at 10:00 AM, with all questions due by Wednesday, October 22, 2025. Formal bids are due on Wednesday, October 29, 2025, at 12:00 PM through the Euna Procurement Portal, with a substantial completion date of July 31, 2026, and a final completion date of August 31, 2026.

The solicitation includes an additive alternate option to paint both Connex containers and contains provisions for liquidated damages of $250 per calendar day for uncompleted work beyond the specified completion date. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are mentioned, the Borough reserves the right to accept or reject any bids and will award the contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. The estimated project budget is less than $80,000, indicating a relatively small-scale municipal infrastructure project. Contractors must submit a list of proposed subcontractors within 24 hours of being identified as the apparent low bidder. The project requires strict adherence to the provided painting specifications, which mandate the use of specific Sherwin-Williams products, including Super Paint for exterior siding in "Fireweed" color with a satin sheen and Pro Industrial Water-based Alkyd Urethane for metal surfaces. The contractor will be responsible for comprehensive surface preparation, careful application techniques, and protection of surrounding areas and equipment during the project.
