About this file

This Invitation for Bid (IFB) document for Construction Services related to the Chicago Transit Authority's (CTA) All Stations Accessibility Program (ASAP) Logan Square Line - California Station project outlines comprehensive technical specifications and contract requirements for construction work. The project, designated as 2015-0027.04, encompasses extensive site work, stationhouse modifications, and platform-level improvements to achieve ADA compliance. The scope includes sidewalk removal and replacement along California Avenue, construction of new ADA-compliant sidewalk areas with curb ramps, utility relocation, stationhouse upgrades featuring power-assisted entry doors, installation of two heavy-duty transit elevators with machine rooms, fare equipment relocation, interior painting, roof repair or replacement, platform canopy extensions, platform width increases in narrow areas, new exit stair construction, and comprehensive electrical, signal, and communications work. The contract documents are organized into four books covering General Requirements, Existing Conditions, concrete through masonry work, metals, wood, thermal and moisture prevention, openings, finishes, specialties, furnishings, and equipment through earthwork, exterior improvements, utilities, and transportation components. A Pre-Construction Conference is scheduled within 15 days of the Notice to Proceed (NTP), with regular progress meetings, trade and technical coordination meetings, and pre-activity meetings required throughout construction.

The Contractor must submit a detailed Baseline Schedule using Critical Path Method (CPM) scheduling within 45 calendar days of NTP, incorporating cost loading, resource loading, and comprehensive project status reporting through Substantial Completion. Contract requirements include six defined allowances addressing utility and building permit costs, underground unforeseen conditions, signal material procurement, hazardous testing and abatement, and temporary station construction, each requiring Contractor-submitted Allowance Expenditure Authorizations (AEAs) for CTA approval prior to expenditure. The Contractor is responsible for all utility coordination, including contacting the City of Chicago Office of Underground Coordination or J.U.L.I.E., protecting existing utilities, and bearing costs for utility relocations and modifications except those specified in allowances. Progress payments are conditioned upon submittal of approved CPM schedules, Applications for Payment with detailed cost breakdowns, Waivers of Mechanic's Lien from the Contractor and all subcontractors, certified payroll documentation, and compliance with all contract submittal procedures. All work must be documented through the CTA's web-based project management system using specified electronic document formats, and the Contractor must maintain monthly digital progress photographs and detailed as-built records throughout the project duration.
