Executive summary

The City of Quincy Purchasing Department (PD888), through the Department of Public Works, is soliciting bids to purchase and deliver 79 aluminum windows for the DPW Building at 55 Sea Street, Quincy, MA. Bids are due by 2026-04-16 11:00 (UTC).

Success will hinge on meeting exact window specs (dimensions, glazing, finish, performance ratings) and providing a clear delivery plan to the DPW site.

What the buyer is trying to do

Acquire and receive delivery of 79 aluminum windows to the DPW Building located at 55 Sea Street in Quincy, MA, via a competitive bid process run by the City of Quincy Purchasing Department on behalf of DPW.

Who should pursue this
  • Aluminum window manufacturers or authorized distributors able to supply and deliver 79 units to Quincy, MA
  • Commercial fenestration suppliers experienced with municipal procurement and specification-driven bids
  • Building envelope product suppliers with established logistics for bulk deliveries to public works facilities
Work breakdown
  • Review CommBuys attachment for required window specifications and bid submission instructions
  • Confirm bill of materials: 79 aluminum windows (types/sizes/configurations per spec)
  • Source/manufacture windows to specification (aluminum frames; glazing and performance requirements per attachment, if any)
  • Submittals as required (cut sheets, shop drawings, warranty documentation, certifications)
  • Coordinate delivery logistics to DPW Building at 55 Sea Street, Quincy, MA (packaging, staging, delivery windows, offload responsibilities)
  • Provide pricing and lead time commitments; clarify any alternates if allowed by the bid documents
Response package checklist
  • Completed bid form(s) from the CommBuys attachment (as applicable)
  • Line-item pricing for 79 aluminum windows consistent with specified sizes/configurations
  • Product cut sheets and documented compliance with stated requirements in the attachment
  • Delivery plan to 55 Sea Street, Quincy, MA (estimated lead time, delivery method, offload assumptions)
  • Warranty terms and any required certifications/quality documentation stated in the attachment
  • Acknowledgement of any addenda (if issued on CommBuys)
More BidPulsar strategy notesCompliance, pricing, teaming, risks, questions, and coverage notes
Compliance notes
  • Bid due date/time: 2026-04-16T11:00:00+00:00
  • Ship-to / delivery location specified: DPW Building, 55 Sea Street, Quincy, MA
  • Quantity specified: 79 aluminum windows
  • Primary requirements and submission instructions are likely in the CommBuys attachment and must be followed exactly
Pricing strategy
  • Structure pricing to match the attachment’s bid schedule (unit vs. lot pricing), ensuring the total reflects 79 windows
  • Price delivery explicitly if the bid form separates product and freight; otherwise clarify delivery is included to 55 Sea Street
  • Verify whether the spec requires different window types/sizes—price by type to avoid ambiguity and reduce risk of disqualification
Teaming and subs
  • If you are a distributor, consider confirming factory support for required submittals, lead times, and warranty documentation for the exact aluminum window line specified
  • Consider a local freight/rigging partner only if the attachment places offload/placement responsibilities on the vendor
Risks and watchouts
  • Specification risk: window dimensions, glazing, finishes, hardware, and performance ratings (if any) may be strict—nonconformance could render the bid nonresponsive
  • Lead time risk for producing 79 aluminum windows; ensure stated delivery schedule is realistic and backed by the manufacturer
  • Delivery logistics risk at 55 Sea Street: access, receiving hours, and offload requirements may be defined in the attachment; mismatches can add cost or cause delays
Smart questions to ask
  • Do the 79 aluminum windows include multiple sizes/configurations, and is there a schedule identifying each type and quantity?
  • Are there required performance standards (e.g., wind load, water infiltration, thermal performance) or code compliance requirements stated in the attachment?
  • Is the scope strictly purchase and delivery, or are field measurements, removal, and/or installation included anywhere in the bid documents?
  • What are the receiving constraints at the DPW Building (delivery hours, dock/forklift availability, offload responsibility)?
  • Are substitutions/equals permitted for the specified window product line, and if so, what is the approval process and deadline?
Source coverage notes

Some notices publish limited source detail. Confirm these points before final bid/no-bid decisions.

  • Specifications and bid submission requirements contained in the CommBuys attachment (dimensions/types, glazing, finish, performance standards, required forms, delivery terms)
