The State University of New York put a new solicitation out for the SBU Engineering Research Center at Heavy & Old Engineering. Bids for the job, listed under New York State Contract Reporter number CR#2140153, are due December 11.

The work is located at 100 Nicolls Rd. in Stony Brook. The public posting does not single out a specific trade, list an estimated project value, or name a plan-holder count.

The university's capital plan points to upcoming work in this footprint. The plan includes a future project to rehabilitate interiors at the Engineering Complex with a total estimated cost of "$1,500."

For a contractor looking at the winter calendar, this is a clear marker for higher-education work. Even without a posted dollar value, a footprint in a major university engineering complex means a chance to get onto a large campus roster before the end of the year.

What to do next

Pull the bid documents from the state contract reporter to find the exact scope and any walkthrough dates. You have until December 11 to put a number on it.
