If you're a subcontractor or supplier who can work on a research and development building, E.W. Howell Co., LLC wants to hear from you. E.W. Howell is the prime contractor building the Institute for Discovery & Innovation in Medical Engineering, or I-DIME, at Stony Brook University's Research & Development Park in Stony Brook, NY. The posting is a subcontracting opportunity — meaning E.W. Howell is the one buying, not a public agency directly.
The job carries solicitation number CR#2139887. The posting doesn't say which trades are needed or spell out a dollar estimate, so any sub or supplier interested should go straight to the source listing to find out what scopes are open.
Quotes are due to E.W. Howell by November 17. No bid bond, insurance requirement, or M/WBE goal is listed in the facts on hand — check the solicitation itself for any of that before you put a number together.
E.W. Howell has done work at Stony Brook before — the company built a medical and research building at Stony Brook University Children's Hospital under a State University Construction Fund contract worth $10.9 million. That history on campus means this prime knows the territory and likely has a process already in place for subcontractor outreach, so a quote that lands on time and complete has a real shot at getting looked at seriously.
If you want in, don't wait on this one. Pull the solicitation document for CR#2139887, find out exactly which trade or scope E.W. Howell needs, and get your number to them before November 17.
