About this file

This is a project manual and specifications document issued by the State of Utah's Division of Facilities Construction and Management (DFCM) for an access control system upgrade at 950 East 25th Street in Ogden, Utah (Project #27082310). The project involves replacing an aging access control system with a construction cost estimate of $80,000. The specifications encompass general requirements, electrical provisions, conduit raceways, electrical boxes and fittings, communications horizontal cabling, and access control systems. The contract is invitational only, limited to three pre-selected contractors: Convergint (Brian Lockwood), DSI (Curtis Fielding), and Harris (Kenny Snow). Key contractual requirements include submission of detailed submittals in PDF format with point-by-point compliance statements, adherence to National Electrical Code (NEC) standards, proper labeling of all electrical equipment, and coordination with multiple trades. Contractors must attend a mandatory preconstruction conference and conduct site inspections prior to bidding. The project requires completion of a preliminary closeout review, substantial completion inspection, and final acceptance meeting before project finalization.

The specifications require contractors to obtain all necessary permits and inspection approvals from authorities having jurisdiction at their own cost and to provide a one-year warranty on all electrical work, with lamps warranted for two months from substantial completion. All materials must be new and bear manufacturer labels and UL certifications where applicable. Contractors are responsible for quality control testing, temporary facilities, waste management, and final cleaning, with all associated costs included in their base bid. The contract documents establish strict work restrictions including prohibitions on alcoholic beverages, tobacco, weapons, and work on Sundays except for emergencies, along with requirements for professional conduct and appropriate dress code. Payment terms, bonding requirements, and liquidated damages are referenced in the supplementary conditions, with specific amounts to be withheld for incomplete punch list items until final acceptance is achieved.
