INVITATION FOR BIDS: Drywall Systems Removal and Replacement
Shkwéngen Apartments, 500 Hill Street, Dowagiac, MI 49047
Addendum for Bids (IFB) for the Shkwéngen Drywall Systems Removal and Replacement Project
The Pokagon Band Department of Housing & Community Development is seeking sealed bid proposals from qualified contractors for the Shkwéngen Drywall Systems Removal and Replacement Project at the Shkwéngen Apartments located at 500 Hill Street, Dowagiac, MI 49047. The project involves asbestos containing materials (ACM). The Deadline for submittal of Bids is 3:00 p.m., Wednesday, January 21, 2026, at which time there will be a Public Bid Opening at the Department of Housing and Community Development Offices at 57824 Potawatomi Trail, Dowagiac, Michigan 49047.
The project involves the careful disconnection from drywall systems and temporary relocation of existing fixtures and appurtenances, including but not limited to cabinetry, light fixtures, appliances, and countertops within each apartment unit, to facilitate ACM containing drywall systems removal and replacement. The intent is to reinstall and reuse the temporarily relocated items which must be protected from dust and debris during the removal of ACM-containing drywall systems. Approximately 60,000 square feet of affected drywall systems will be removed and properly disposed of from walls and ceilings across three two-story apartment buildings, which include 27 residential units and a common laundry room.
Following the removal and proper disposal of the affected drywall systems, environmental clearance will be confirmed to ensure the area is safe for reentry and reconstruction. New drywall systems will then be installed in compliance with applicable building codes and refinished to match the original appearance. Once the new systems are in place, all temporarily removed items will be reinstalled in their original locations. Any fixtures and appurtenances that were removed but not suitable for reuse will be replaced to restore each unit to its pre-removal condition.
Interested contractors may obtain a copy of the bid package, or further information by contacting:
Robert Torzynski, Planning Manager, Department of Housing & Community Development by telephone at (269) 462-0688 or by email at Robert.Torzynski@PokagonBand-nsn.gov
