The Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Division of Engineering, is seeking a licensed professional contractor for solicitation SRC0000042436 to install an ADA-compliant paddle switch and automatic door operator for the single-occupancy restroom in Room 105 at the Appalachian Hills Wildlife Area Visitor Center. The scope of work includes the installation of all necessary door hardware to ensure ADA accessibility, with the requirement that all exposed conduits in public areas be painted to match surrounding surfaces. Because the facility will remain occupied during construction, the contractor must perform daily cleanup. Work is scheduled Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., with a final completion deadline of November 30, 2026. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Bidders must submit an electronic bid form, a detailed quote, and a completed Affirmation Form by October 30, 2026. Key requirements include compliance with ANSI/BHMA A156.19-2019 and Specification Section 08 71 13. The project is subject to prevailing wage rates, Equal Employment Opportunity requirements, and the EDGE Business Development program. Successful bidders must provide performance and payment bonds and adhere to strict material packaging and labeling standards. Invoicing is handled through Ohio Shared Services, and final acceptance is contingent upon a successful on-site demonstration of all equipment and system features to the Owner and Engineer.
