Correct Egress Door & Install Panic Hardware

Adams & Associates, Inc. is soliciting bids for a project to correct the egress door and install panic hardware at the main Electrical Room of the Atterbury Job Corps Center in Edinburgh, Indiana. The project is required to bring the facility into compliance with NEC 2020, Section 110.26.C(3), as the current door for the 1200A electrical equipment lacks panic hardware and does not open toward the egress. This solicitation is set aside for various small business categories, including SDB, WOSB, HUBZone, and SDVOSB. Bidders must attend a mandatory site visit on August 25, 2026, at 10:30 AM to be considered for the award, with final proposals due by September 1, 2026, at 3:00 PM. The contract will be awarded based on a best-value trade-off, evaluating price (60%), quality (20%), past performance (10%), and schedule (10%). Selected contractors must be licensed in the state of Indiana and provide proof of insurance, including a 1 million dollar general liability policy. Performance requirements include adhering to Davis-Bacon Act wage determinations, complying with strict center security regulations regarding firearms and drugs, and coordinating work to minimize operational disruptions. The contractor must begin work within 14 days of the Notice to Proceed and provide a sequenced construction schedule within 10 days. Final payment is contingent upon the submission of certified payroll records, lien releases, and a completed SF-1413 form.
