About this file
This document is Addendum 1 for the Hydraulic Elevator Alterations project issued by the City of Madison Finance Department's Purchasing Services on July 23, 2025. The addendum addresses two key questions from potential bidders regarding the project's specifications, specifically clarifying the details of Alternates 1 and 2 related to drilling requirements. Alternate #1 involves potential re-drilling inside the existing casing, while Alternate #2 involves removing the existing casing, then re-drilling and re-casing. The document also provides the pre-bid meeting sign-in sheet, which includes attendees from companies such as MEI, Express, TKE, and Schumacher.
The addendum highlights the technical nuances of the elevator alteration project, demonstrating the city's commitment to precise project specifications and transparent communication with potential contractors. By issuing this clarification, the City of Madison ensures that bidders have a comprehensive understanding of the project requirements, particularly the drilling alternatives. The document directs any further questions to Brian Pittelli from City of Madison Purchasing Services, providing contact information for additional inquiries. The addendum serves as a critical supplemental document to help potential contractors accurately prepare their bids for the hydraulic elevator alterations project.

Hydraulic Elevator Alterations
Notice to All Bidders:
Please note the following responses to the questions received:
Question 1 For clarification purposes, can you please confirm the intent of Alternates 1 and 2? Per the specification, including section 1.14, it appears both Alternates 1 and 2 include needing to drill, just for varying reasons.
Alternate 1, titled “DRILLING”, states “Should Contractor not be able to clean out the existing hole by vacuum truck or by other means, or it is of inadequate diameter or plumbness required to accommodate installation of the new jack unit without redrilling, …”. Alternate 2, titled “AUXILIARY WELL CASING REMOVAL”, states to “remove the auxiliary casing” and proceeds to state that “…Alternate Bid #2 shall include any and all associated drilling…”.
The specification differs from the alternate descriptions included on Bid Form D2 (Excel), which describes Alternate 1 as “Cleaning out the hole with vactor” and Alternate 2 as “Drilling out the hole”.
Please confirm if the alternate descriptions in the specification should prevail.
Answer 1 Both alternates are re-drilling.
Alternate #1 assumes re-drilling inside the existing casing. Alternate #2 assumes removal of the existing casing, then re-drilling and re-casing.
Question 2 Can you please provide the sign in sheet from the pre bid meeting for the above project if one is being maintained?
Answer 2 Adam Falk – MEI Ryan Dunkelberger – Express Tim Callahan, Andrew Braun – TKE Russ Cable – Schumacher
