DW20-001 Digital Clocks Project - Bid Set Specifications
This is a bid set specification document for a construction project issued by Traverse City Area Public Schools (TCAPS) in Traverse City, Michigan. The project involves the removal of existing analog clocks and provision and installation of new WiFi wireless synchronized digital clocks across six school facilities: Central High School, West Senior High School, Traverse City High School, Silver Lake Elementary, Courtade Elementary, and Traverse Heights Elementary. The digital clocks specified are National Time and Signal Corporation NTS WiFi DW400 Series units, available as single-faced (model SF-DW400-4-120V-WT) or double-sided corridor clocks (model DF-DW400-4-WT), with red LED digits and various operational features including auto-dim capability, battery-less backup timekeeping, and compatibility with existing WiFi networks. Sealed bids were due by 2:00 PM on December 17, 2019, with public opening at the TCAPS Maintenance Department, 1212 Cass Road, Traverse City, Michigan. Board approval was scheduled for January 27, 2020, with substantial completion required by August 23, 2020. Bidders were required to schedule site visits in advance through the Capital Projects Office rather than visiting school sites directly. No pre-bid conference was scheduled. Work was restricted to after-hours, weekends, and school breaks to minimize disruption to occupied facilities.
Bids were required on a lump-sum basis with unit prices provided for single-faced and double-faced clocks, broken down by individual school location. A bid bond equal to five percent of the total base bid was required, made payable to the owner and issued by a licensed Michigan surety. The project was not subject to prevailing wage requirements. Contractors were required to maintain comprehensive liability insurance with minimum limits of $1,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury and property damage, along with performance and payment bonds equal to 100 percent of the contract sum. All contractor personnel required identification badges issued following FBI and State of Michigan fingerprint background checks at an approximate cost of $66 per person. Contract administration required detailed cost documentation for all work, including labor, materials, subcontracting, and overhead costs with no hidden fees permitted. The contract form was a Blanket Purchase Order referencing the General and Supplementary Conditions, with a one-year warranty required on all materials and labor. Final payment was contingent upon completion of all closeout documents, punch list items, and approval by the Owner's Project Manager.
