Second time's the charm, maybe — Ossining Union Free School District has put its Electrical Construction contract back out to bid, with proposals due at 3:00 p.m. on November 4. The fact that it's a rebid means something didn't stick the first time, whether that was pricing, qualified bidders, or something else the posting doesn't say.
This is Phase 1 of the district's 2024 bond program, covering the locker room and CTE (career and technical education) addition at Ossining High School, 29 South Highland Avenue in Ossining, Westchester County. The solicitation number is R24.16761.00, and this round covers the electrical scope only — not the whole Phase 1 job.
There's no value estimate listed, and the public posting doesn't mention a pre-bid meeting or a bid security requirement, so don't assume either way — check the actual bid documents for that detail before you price it.
For an electrical contractor, a rebid is worth a second look even if you passed the first time. Whatever knocked the first round off track — a thin bidder field, a bid that came in over budget, paperwork issues — may have been fixed in how this round is structured, and bond programs like this one tend to have more phases coming behind them.
Bid documents are on the Biddy Projects online plan room, and you'll need to register there to get them. Get in soon — the deadline is 3:00 p.m. on November 4.
