Rfb# 2025-03 Holly Springs Town Center Parking Deck Above Ground Dry Stack Fire Protection Piping, F

The project involves installing an above ground dry stack fire protection piping system, including fittings, valves, and an air compressor, at the Holly Springs Town Center Parking Deck located at 170 Timothy Downing Drive, Georgia. The work must be performed according to plans prepared by Kimley-Horn, with a strict completion timeline of 60 days from the Notice to Proceed, anticipated in November 2025. The contract emphasizes bonding and insurance requirements, mandating a 5% bid bond, and performance and payment bonds each for 100% of the contract value, with surety companies needing specific ratings and licensing. Liquidated damages are set at $250 per day for delays beyond the completion date, and a 5% retainage will be held until final acceptance by the City. Bidders must comply with Georgia laws and submit sealed bids by October 10, 2025, at 10:00 AM, addressed to the specified municipal locations, with the bid clearly marked for identification. The procurement process is based on a sealed bid, lowest responsible and responsive bid evaluation, with no explicit federal clauses or additional evaluation weights specified. Supporting documents include plans by Kimley-Horn and related specifications, though these are referenced rather than attached. The scope excludes fire alarm, underground piping, and fire department connection work, which are to be performed by others. There are no explicit packaging, labeling, or MIL-STD marking requirements beyond bid envelope marking. Final inspection and acceptance are conducted by the City of Holly Springs at the project site, with no detailed inspection procedures provided. The contract emphasizes legal and bonding compliance, with no mention of socioeconomic certifications or federal acquisition clauses, and the award will be based primarily on bid price, responsibility, and responsiveness within the outlined timeline and bonding requirements.
