The Cherokee Nation Housing Authority is seeking qualified contractors for a renovation project in Rogers County, Oklahoma, under Solicitation #164543, with responses due by May 20, 2026. The scope of work encompasses a full range of construction and repair services including appliances, carpentry, drywall and finish, electrical, flooring, HVAC, paint, plumbing, roofing, sheet metal and gutters, and site work. The project is federally funded and governed by HUD regulations, requiring strict adherence to labor, environmental, and procurement standards. Contractors must comply with the Davis-Bacon Act and Copeland Act by paying prevailing wages and submitting certified payroll records weekly, with all records retained for three years. The solicitation mandates inclusion of Indian preference under 25 U.S.C. § 450e(b), requiring contractors to prioritize hiring, training, and subcontracting with qualified Native Americans and to submit a detailed workforce plan. Additionally, Section 3 compliance under 24 CFR Part 75 requires the promotion of employment and economic opportunities for low- and very low-income residents, with specific clauses to be incorporated into all subcontracts. Contractors must provide proof of insurance including workers’ compensation, general liability, and automobile liability, naming the Cherokee Nation Housing Authority as certificate holder, and are strictly prohibited from placing liens on the property. All submissions must include a completed HUD-5369-A form with certifications regarding independent price determination, no contingent fees, no organizational conflicts of interest, and whether the offeror is a small business or Indian-owned enterprise. The Previous Participation Certificate (HUD-2530) is required and must be submitted with the bid or within three working days or the bid becomes nonresponsive. The non-collusive affidavit is also mandatory—failure to submit it upon request may result in disqualification. Evaluation will follow a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable approach, awarding the contract to the lowest responsive bidder who meets all regulatory and technical requirements. Performance will occur on-site at the project location, with inspection and acceptance conducted by the Housing Authority of the Cherokee Nation inspector. Payment terms, invoicing methods, and specific accounting codes are to be determined at contract execution, and contractors must notify the Contracting Officer within ten days of any anticipated delay. Proposals may be submitted by mail, hand delivery, or email to the designated point of contact, Baylee Scott, at the Cherokee Nation Housing Authority in Tahlequah, Oklahoma.
