Vault Door Replacement

The Texas Military Department is soliciting bids to replace two existing Class 3 vault doors with a single GSA-approved Double Leaf Class 5-A vault door at the San Marcos Armory located at 201 City Park, Building 1, San Marcos, Texas. The project requires the complete removal of the existing Mosler Model 5161 door, frame, and threshold, along with associated steel plates and masonry, and the installation of a new vault door with a Sargent and Greenleaf 2937 lock or equivalent, including a new frame, threshold, and hardware. Structural modifications include saw-cutting interior cement walls to expand the opening by six inches and removing steel plates to facilitate installation. The contractor must maintain a safe worksite daily, haul away all debris, perform final cleaning, and provide daily written progress reports to the TMD Project Manager. The work is to be performed under a firm fixed price contract, with all costs—including labor, materials, transportation, and equipment—included in the bid. The contract term is initially one year, with the option for TMD to extend it up to three additional one-year periods at its sole discretion. Delivery is FOB to the armory, and acceptance is contingent upon inspection and signed receipt by TMD personnel, with any deficiencies requiring correction within 21 days before payment. All responses must be submitted electronically by 2:00 p.m. CST on August 24, 2026, to [email hidden] with a copy to Dario Thomas, the contract administrator, using a specified subject line and formatted into three distinct volumes containing completed contract forms, certifications, financial and insurance documentation, organizational information, and a mandatory pricing schedule. Bidders must submit an Application for Texas Identification Number and a Direct Deposit Authorization Form if choosing electronic payment. Compliance with numerous state and federal regulations is mandatory, including adherence to Buy Texas requirements, E-Verify program participation, prohibition of discrimination against firearm entities, and assurances that the vendor is not affiliated with countries or entities restricted under Texas law. Insurance requirements are stringent, mandating Commercial General Liability, Workers’ Compensation, Automobile, Umbrella, and Professional Liability coverage with specified limits and carriers rated A or better by A.M. Best. Contractors are liable for any damage to government property and must report such incidents within 24 hours. The award will be based on best value, considering price, compliance and quality, delivery timeframe, probable performance including past performance history, and other relevant factors. V
