THIS IS NOT A CHANGE ORDER NOR A DIRECTION TO PROCEED WITH THE WORK DESCRIBED HEREIN.
The Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe, Community Development, is seeking proposals from qualified Electrical Contractors for Time and Material Service Contracts. This service contract shall be a one year contract to be utilized by Community Development/ Housing Department for multiple small residential projects. This will help to eliminate the delays often encountered with small service contracts, and will decrease the amount of administrative time spent on small projects.
Work Scope:
Projects to be covered under the annual contract will be small residential projects; or service calls deemed to be emergencies; and TRR Rehab jobs. When possible the contractor will provide the Mille Lacs Band Community Development staff with a cost estimate prior to performing any work. Also, if the Contractor begins work on a project and encounters a substantial change in the project’s work scope, the Contractor is responsible for notifying the Mille Lacs Band as soon as possible and prior to performing any work not already approved. The Contractor may be called and dispatched to a project at any time. The Contractor is expected to provide service in a timely manner. Contractor is responsible for contacting Toby Egan, Mille Lacs Band Building Official, on each project to determine whether or not a permit will be required. Contractors are responsible for securing all applicable permits and supplying the Mille Lacs Band with copies of any inspections conducted and will not be paid without this documentation.
General Conditions:
Upon approval of proposals, a Service Contract shall be awarded for a one-year period ending September 30, 2025 for an amount not to exceed $60,000.00. There may be one or two service contracts awarded depending on how many proposals are received to provide service to each district. Depending on necessity less than the awarded contract amount may be used for the year. In the event that additional dollars need to be added to the service contract, the Contractor agrees to continue providing service at the rates provided in their original proposal. Contractor shall have the responsibility to keep accurate records for the project and submit invoicing to Community Development. Each invoice must be itemized and reference: the actual date of service; number of hours and rate charged for labor; and a detailed list of materials and supplies used, as well as, (when possible) proof of price that the contractor paid for materials to verify the percentage of mark-up. Invoice amount will be verified, paid, and deducted from the total contract amount.
