Question 1

Posted: 5/15/2024

Question: Will the County accept an engineered fabric building that meets or exceeds the project requirements? Is the project strictly low bid or will building longevity and performance be taken into account?

Response: I don’t think we can accept a bid for a building not constructed of steel as that is the specification throughout the bid notice. Additionally, I have concerns about the durability and reparability of a fabric cladded structure given the proximity of oak trees in the area. With that said, it is an interesting question and idea. I wouldn’t mind seeing what the manufacturer has in mind, but I would definitely not want to be bound to purchase from them just because the price is lower than an otherwise qualified metal building submission.
