The Cherokee Nation, on behalf of Thompson Construction, Inc., is soliciting sealed bids for Bid Phase #1 Demolition of the Allied Health Education Center in Oklahoma, under Solicitation Number Procurement #164764. The solicitation was posted on July 16, 2026, with a submission deadline of July 28, 2026, at 1:00 PM, and all bids must be submitted electronically via a designated SharePoint portal. The work involves full structural demolition, debris removal, and site clearance, requiring compliance with federal, state, and tribal environmental and safety regulations. A mandatory pre-bid site visit is scheduled for July 22, 2026, and any questions must be submitted by the same date. Indian Preference applies under the Cherokee Nation’s Tribal Employment Rights Ordinance (TERO), meaning bidders must be TERO-certified to qualify for preferential consideration, though both Indian-owned and non-Indian-owned firms may submit bids. The contract is expected to be awarded on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable basis, consistent with standard construction solicitation practices, though specific evaluation factors are not detailed in the provided materials. There is no disclosed contract value, pricing structure, or line-item detail; all financial and technical specifications are contained within the external bidding documents accessible via the portal. Performance will occur entirely in Oklahoma, with no FOB or delivery terms specified, and no payment, accounting, or contracting officer details are provided beyond the primary point of contact, Shelly McClain. No formal clause listings, packaging requirements, inspection criteria, or representations are included in the accessible data, though compliance with TERO certification constitutes a mandatory condition triggering associated tribal reporting obligations. All submission formatting, file types, and documentation requirements are governed by the external bid package hosted on SharePoint, which is the sole authoritative source for complete solicitation details.
