Appendix B1-SBP-6.131 Alternates

This document is an alternates specification appendix for the EM2624 Yaeger Structural Stabilization and Repairs project managed by the State of Colorado. The appendix outlines alternate work items and specifications that bidders may propose as modifications or additions to the base project scope. The document establishes the framework for presenting alternative construction methods, materials, or phasing approaches that could enhance project outcomes or provide cost efficiencies. Bidders are permitted to submit alternates in accordance with the specifications outlined in this appendix, provided they clearly identify and justify any proposed deviations from the primary scope of work. The alternates process allows for flexibility in project delivery while maintaining compliance with the overall project objectives for structural stabilization and repairs at the Yaeger facility.

The alternates submission requirements specify pricing structures for each proposed alternate, including separate line-item costs that must be clearly itemized and added to or subtracted from the base bid amount. Bidders must provide detailed documentation supporting the feasibility, cost implications, and technical benefits of any proposed alternates. The document establishes evaluation criteria for comparing alternate proposals and ensures that any accepted alternates remain consistent with project specifications and Colorado state procurement regulations. This structured approach to alternates allows the state to consider innovative solutions while maintaining budget control and project schedule adherence throughout the structural stabilization and repair work.
