Tunbridge Town Hall Building Envelope Improvements

The state of Vermont, specifically through Orleans County, is seeking construction services for building envelope improvements at the Tunbridge Town Hall located at 277 VT-110. The procurement is a request for bids (RFB) focused on comprehensive insulation and air sealing work, which requires obtaining necessary permits and historic clearance before project commencement. Prospective bidders are mandated to attend a site walkthrough, thoroughly examine town-provided scope documents, and fully assess existing building conditions prior to proposal submission. The project has a firm construction completion deadline of April 30, 2026, with bid proposals due by November 12, 2025. Interested contractors must submit questions to Harry Falconer at hfalconer@trorc.org, who will maintain a bidder list and distribute any subsequent questions and addenda. A recent energy audit for the building is available upon email request to the project contact, which may provide additional technical context for bidders preparing their proposals.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly noted in the contract opportunity details. The procurement appears to be open to qualified construction contractors with experience in municipal building envelope improvement projects, particularly those with expertise in historic building renovation and energy efficiency upgrades. While no incumbent vendor information was provided, the project suggests potential integration with existing town hall infrastructure and requires careful consideration of the building's historic characteristics. The exact budget range or award value was not specified in the available documentation. Interested bidders should expect to demonstrate technical capability, understanding of historic preservation requirements, and ability to complete the comprehensive building envelope improvements within the specified timeframe of approximately six months from contract award.
