Construction Bids
Q: How do I get notified when a bid is open?
A: You can sign up to be notified that a bid is being opened by filling out this form on our website or by emailing hannah@habitatcentralar.org. Please include at least the first name and email address of each person wishing to be notified. We prefer to have first name, last name, company name, email address, and phone number. Please note that we are not able to notify based on area of work, so you will be notified of all bids when they are posted.
Q: I have a question about something in a bid request. Who should I contact?
Q: How long are bids open? Why isn’t there a longer time frame in which a bid can be submitted?
A: The length a bid is open is based on the specific project and timing we are facing. It is dependent on a number of factors: size and complexity of job, timing of project, complimentary work being done, any requirements from funders, etc. Certain federally funded projects have minimum advertising requirements, which we always meet or exceed.
Q: I have already submitted some of these same copies and forms with past bids. I know you already have them. Do I really need to resubmit this stuff?
A: Yes. Every bid must include all of the required paperwork listed, even if you have submitted it before. We are working on a process to make this easier in the future, but for now, please include ALL required information or your bid may be rejected.
Q: How is my bond check handled?
Q: I do not understand some of the Federal Requirements in the bid request. What should I do?
Q: Why do different bids require different paperwork?
Q: What does it mean to be a “pre-qualified bidder” for Habitat for Humanity of Central Arkansas or for the Pulaski County Neighborhood Alliance for Habitat? How do I become a Pre-Qualified Bidder?
