Project 26-127-MLC Roof Replacement at the Mexia State Supported Living Center (MSSLC), General Store, Bldg. 673

The Texas Health and Human Services Commission is seeking competitive bids to remove the existing composition shingle roofing system and install a new standing seam metal roof at the Mexia State Supported Living Center General Store, Building 673, a 4,668 square foot facility. This procurement, identified as IFB HHS0017200 and classified under NAICS code 238160, requires all bidders to attend one of two mandatory on-site visits at the specified location in Mexia, Texas; failure to attend in person results in disqualification. Bidders must submit responses via email to [email hidden] or by USB drive, with all submissions received by June 1, 2026, at 10:30 AM Central Time. The response must include completed and signed copies of Exhibit A (HHS Solicitation Affirmations), Exhibit F (HUB Subcontracting Plan), and Form 1295 (Certificate of Interested Parties), processed online through the Texas Ethics Commission prior to award. Bidders are also required to provide a Texas Identification Number (TIN) for payment eligibility and submit detailed pricing using Exhibit C, which must include a mandatory $25,000 contingency for potential decking repairs. All pricing must be firm, fixed, and all-inclusive, covering labor, equipment, materials, supplies, and incidentals, with no reimbursement allowed for travel, per diem, or other incidental costs. The contract, which begins upon award and expires August 31, 2027, allows for a one-year extension at HHSC’s sole discretion if needed for transition or processing a new contract. Evaluation of bids will consider past vendor performance as a pass/fail gate, with rejection possible for unsatisfactory performance ratings, active corrective actions, or contract cancellations in the past 12 months, followed by assessment of requirements compliance, performance delivery, and price. The award will be made to the bidder offering the best value to the State of Texas, not necessarily the lowest price. Contractors must comply with OSHA, TAB, and ASCE standards, maintain required insurance coverage including $1 million in umbrella liability and workers’ compensation with employer’s liability limits of $1 million per accident and per employee, and ensure all subcontractors meet the same requirements. Work must be performed with daily waste removal, continuous quality monitoring, and full alignment with manufacturer specifications. Payment will be made monthly based on approved submissions tied to
