Dated February 26, 2021: Sealed bids for the SOUTH LOOP BOARDWALK project will be received
at the City of Rochester Hills’ Purchasing Division located at 1000 Rochester Hills Drive (Lower Level),
Rochester Hills, Michigan 48309 via electronic bid submission ONLY until EXACTLY 3:00 P.M.,
Michigan Time, on WEDNESDAY, MARCH 24, 2021 at which time the bids will be publicly opened
and read aloud via Zoom Teleconference. Please note, there may be delays during the opening due to
downloading of the bids submitted, printing them, and then reading them in real time as the opening is
occurring. In order to assist in the process, Bidders should upload one complete bid document to the
MITN system to assist in streamlining the opening process. It is requested, due to City Hall closures,
that vendors wishing to view the opening do so via the Zoom meeting information provided. If vendors
arrive at City Hall, access to the building is not assured due to MDHHS notices and directives.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, some City processes have been affected and as such, are requiring
adjustment to the normal processes. It is important that you read all the information to ensure you submit your bid response to the City in the correct manner. Please ensure all documents are signed. If you are interested in providing a bid, please read the document in its entirety and submit the requested information and proper forms and upload to the MITN website. Electronic submission ONLY will be accepted. Hardcopy, emailed, faxed and late submittals will not be accepted.
The City of Rochester Hills officially distributes bid documents from the Purchasing Division or through
the Michigan Intergovernmental Trade network (MITN). Copies of bid documents obtained from any
other source are not considered official copies. The first step to do business with the City is to become
a registered vendor by visiting the City website at www.rochesterhills.org, click on Departments,
Fiscal, Accounting, & Purchasing, Procurement Division, then Vendor Registration. All addendum and
final bid results will be posted on the MITN website after award. The Contract and Specifications
documents for this project are available on the MITN system. A complete paper copy of the Contract
and Specification documents can be obtained from the City of Rochester Hills Purchasing Division at
1000 Rochester Hills Drive, Rochester Hills, Michigan 48309 and will require a non-refundable fee of
$50.00, if pick-up at the city or $75.00, if mailed. Checks/money orders must be in the possession
of the City before documents/drawings will be mailed.
