Solicitation # RFP-171-260000002447-2
This solicitation, numbered RFP-171-260000002447-2, is issued by the Michigan Department of Technology, Management and Budget (DTMB) for work associated with the Battle Creek Air National Guard Base, specifically targeting the ADAL Server Room 6900. The solicitation was posted on August 4, 2026, and responses are due by August 27, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time, submitted exclusively through the State of Michigan’s SIGMA VSS electronic procurement portal. The North American Industry Classification System code is 811210, indicating a focus on administrative and support services, though the underlying scope involves facility design and construction activities aligned with Department of Defense standards. Performance is expected to occur at various locations across Michigan, with the primary site being the Battle Creek ANG facility. The procurement is structured under a design-build or design-bid-build framework, with evaluation based on a cost-driven approach where the base bid accounts for 90% of the Maximum Construction Cost and optional bid items represent the remaining 10%. The technical scope requires full compliance with Unified Facilities Guide Specifications (UFGS) and Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC), including architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, communications, and fire protection systems as defined in the UFC "H" series design standards. Deliverables include comprehensive design documentation across multiple phases—from preliminary and schematic design through final construction documentation—each requiring specific certifications and checklists. Inspection and acceptance occur on-site, governed by third-party quality control reviews to ensure constructability, coordination, and regulatory adherence. All contractors must register with the state to receive electronic payments via DTMB-440 forms and must submit monthly invoices with certified logs and expense documentation. Hazardous material handling, including PCB disposal and beryllium exposure controls, must comply with federal environmental regulations, and labeling for radioactive or unidentified substances is mandatory. No formal FAR clauses, packaging requirements beyond hazardous material labeling, or socioeconomic certifications are explicitly included in the solicitation. The contracting officer’s representative is typically the Base Civil Engineer, with no named point of contact beyond primary and secondary administrative contacts provided. The absence of specific contract line items, pricing figures, or UEI/CAGE code requirements suggests that final cost details and entity identification are expected to be submitted with the proposal.
