Gymnasium Window Replacement at the Baltimore City Juvenile Justice Center

The Maryland Department of Juvenile Services is soliciting bids for the removal and installation of thirty-two high-performance commercial-grade modern plexiglass windows and hardware at the Baltimore City Juvenile Justice Center gymnasium. The project involves working at heights of 20 to 25 feet and requires the reuse of existing frames, which must be primed and painted with two coats of white semi-gloss water-based epoxy paint on both the interior and exterior. All work must comply with local and state building codes, ADA accessibility requirements, NFPA fire and life safety codes, and OSHA regulations. The contract is a one-time buy until project completion, and the award will be granted to the responsive and responsible bidder offering the lowest total price. This is a Small Business Reserve procurement limited to vendors certified by the Governor's Office of Small, Minority and Women Business Affairs. Eligible bidders must possess at least five years of experience in window replacement and installation, be licensed by the Maryland Department of Labor, and provide three references from the past five years. Due to the nature of the detention facility, strict security protocols are in place, including mandatory CJIS background checks and fingerprinting for all personnel, rigid tool accountability, and the prohibition of contraband such as tobacco and lighters. Bidders must submit their proposals via eMMA and include mandatory documentation such as a legal action summary, contract affidavit, and financial capability statements.
