Acton Memorial Library Bathroom Renovation

The Acton Memorial Library Bathroom Renovation contract is a publicly solicited construction project issued by the Town of Acton, Massachusetts, under solicitation number BD-26-1693-192MP-192MP-128745. The project involves renovating the bathroom facilities at the library located at 486 Main Street, Acton, MA, with a strict completion timeframe requiring substantial completion within 90 calendar days from the issuance of the Notice to Proceed. Bidders must be certified under Massachusetts state law, specifically possessing a current Certificate of Eligibility and Update Statement under M.G.L. Chapter 149, Section 44D, and must comply with the Massachusetts prevailing wage regulations. The solicitation explicitly mandates electronic bid submission through the Projectdog.com platform, disallowing any hard copy submissions, and includes a bid security requirement of at least 5% of the possible bid amount with bids valid for 30 calendar days following the submission deadline of June 9, 2026. The contract is governed entirely by Massachusetts state statutes and municipal procurement rules rather than federal acquisition regulations, and as such, it does not include FAR clauses or any federal contract numbering typical of federally administered contracts. While the solicitation does not provide detailed pricing or contract line item data, nor explicit evaluation criteria or weighting, it strongly emphasizes procedural and administrative compliance, including adherence to tax exemption provisions under M.G.L. Chapter 64H, Section 6(f), and encourages participation of certified minority- and women-owned businesses in line with affirmative action policies. The contract documentation, prepared by Context Architecture, requires bidders to conduct site visits and familiarize themselves thoroughly with the contract documents. Post-award payment, invoicing procedures, or inspection details are not specified in the solicitation. The Town Manager serves as the award authority, with administrative activities coordinated through Projectdog Inc., and the project reflects a firm fixed-price procurement typical for public construction governed by state law.
