SCDJJ JDCC Annex Recreation Yard Fence

The South Carolina Department of Juvenile Justice (SCDJJ) is soliciting bids for the removal of approximately 326 linear feet of existing fencing and installation of about 282 linear feet of new 12-foot-high security fencing at the JDCC Juvenile Detention Center Complex in Columbia, SC. The new fence must be embedded in concrete footings and topped with double-rolled 24 to 30-inch razor wire configured in a concertina or double-coil design on angled outriggers. The scope includes removal of the existing double gate and installation of a new single gate equipped with a yoke-type locking mechanism. The contractor is responsible for providing all labor, materials, equipment, mobilization, utility coordination (via SC811), traffic control, and daily cleanup, with completion required within 30 days from receipt of the purchase order. Compliance with OSHA safety standards, SCDJJ security procedures, and valid South Carolina general contractor licensing is mandatory, as is having at least three years of documented experience in fencing installation. Contract administration involves electronic payment processing via EFT through the State Treasurer’s Office, with payment remittance details to be specified by the contractor. Inspection and acceptance occur onsite at the JDCC facility, requiring final approval by the SCDJJ project manager after a comprehensive walkthrough confirming complete compliance with contract requirements, quality workmanship, and use of new, suitable materials. The solicitation includes standard contract clauses from South Carolina’s procurement system, such as termination for convenience, funding availability, changes, waiver, and organizational conflict of interest disclosures, though no federal FAR clause numbers are used. Mandatory signed attachments include agreements on contractor conduct, PREA compliance, and project security procedures. Offerors must submit proposals electronically by January 30, 2026, through the South Carolina procurement portal, adhering to detailed submission instructions. Minority Business Enterprise participation and subcontractor disclosure requirements are incorporated, with particular attention to subcontractors exceeding 10% of total contract cost or holding critical roles. While the solicitation outlines a lump-sum pricing structure for fencing materials, labor, and razor wire installation, no pricing or estimated contract value is provided in the documentation. Overall, the contract emphasizes security enhancements, strict safety and procedural compliance, and timely project delivery at the authorized South Carolina juvenile justice facility.
