The Greater Gadsden Housing Authority is requesting proposals in order to execute a contract for recurrent and emergency repair work to individual HVAC systems installed in apartments of the Housing Authority, as well as those systems installed at administrative and public facilities maintained by the Authority.  Proposals will be accepted at the office of the Executive Director until 11:00 a.m. Central Time Monday, July 20, 2015, at which time they will be opened and read aloud.  Any bid received after the stated date and time will not be considered. The Bid Opening will be held at the GGHA Central Office, 422 Chestnut Street Gadsden, Alabama 35901and everyone is invited to attend. The contract will become effective August 1, 2015, and will continue for a period of two (2) years, with a one (1) year optional renewal clause should the GGHA choose to do so.

All contractors who submit a proposal must possess a business license with the City of Gadsden, Etowah County, and an Alabama State HVAC Contractors License.  All technicians that work on Housing Authority property must meet state, federal and local certifications.  Any firm submitting a proposal must be bonded and will be required to submit proof of insurance with their proposal. If any insurance or license becomes expired during the period of the contract, it is the responsibility of the contractor to make sure the Housing Authority is provided with current, updated certificates. Insurance must be in effect at all times. Failure to maintain insurance will be grounds for contract termination, if awarded. NOTE: Contractor will not allow excess of personnel force to complete the work item reported by the Authority.

(1) General Liability Insurance in the amount of $100,000.00 minimum.

(2) Automobile Insurance in the amount of $100,000.00 minimum.

Any contractor who submits a proposal should use the attached proposal sheet.  An itemized cost to be charged the Housing Authority for each component should be submitted.  Materials should be quoted at a cost-plus percentage basis.  Any component not applicable for the performance of the contract should be stricken and noted as such.  Any extraordinary charges in addition to what is requested should be listed under “OTHER” and detailed.  (i.e. fuel surcharges; environmental fees; regulatory fees, etc.)

Submitted with each proposal, there should be a summary of the contractor’s business history, including the length of time established in business; key personnel, their qualifications and years experience; the number of certified technicians; and at least three (3) business references with permission for the Authority to contact.

Based upon the quotations submitted on the Proposal Sheet, business history and experience, and emergency management information, a contractor will be selected.  However, the Housing Authority reserves the right not to enter into any contract as a result of this request for proposal.

The Greater Gadsden Housing Authority is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
