The solicitation BD-19-1411-CAPPR-LOC1-128359 issued by the Massachusetts Port Authority (Massport) through its Capital Programs Office seeks Statements of Qualifications from experienced Terrazzo and Painting trade contractors for the L1820-C2 Terminal E Garage project located at One Harborside Drive, Boston, MA. This procurement is governed by Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 149A and involves a two-step process: first, the prequalification of trade contractors based on management experience, relevant public project references, and demonstrated capacity to complete the work with financial stability; followed by an Invitation to Bidders from the prequalified pool. The project comprises the construction and implementation of a six-level precast parking garage connected to Terminal E, with estimated trade contract values of approximately $52 million for Terrazzo work and $52 million for Painting work, totaling over $104 million. The scope includes installation of Terrazzo flooring and painting systems, with a performance period of about three months. Work is to be performed at the Terminal E Garage site, with government inspection and acceptance implied at the destination. Submissions must be made electronically via the Bid Express portal by 12:00 PM local time on May 14, 2026. The evaluation is qualifications-based without defined weighting or scoring, emphasizing contractor management capabilities, public project experience, and long-term viability rather than price. The contract does not reference federal acquisition regulations or clauses but complies with state procurement laws. Supplemental technical details and evaluation procedures are included in an information package accessible through Massport. Contract administration details such as payment office, invoicing method, or specific contract type are not formally defined at this stage, as this solicitation serves to prequalify contractors before formal bidding. Key points of contact include Samantha Baker (purchaser) and Luciana Burdi, Massport’s Chief Infrastructure Officer. The project reflects a significant public infrastructure investment requiring qualified, financially stable contractors to ensure timely, high-quality delivery in accordance with Massachusetts state regulations.
