About this file
This is a Bid Clarification document issued by Rockford Construction for the NVPS Athletics Addition and Renovation project located in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The clarification addresses multiple scope modifications across various bid packages (BP) related to athletic facility construction and renovation work. Key clarifications include the exclusion of soccer and lacrosse goals from BP 6 (to be furnished by owner), confirmation that BP 13 (Bleacher Contractor) is responsible for concrete slabs under proposed bleachers, assignment of turf drain tile responsibility to BP 32D, and several revised and new alternate pricing options for concrete work, netting replacement, turf specifications, and demolition services across multiple bid packages. The document specifies that all Bid RFIs must be submitted by October 15, 2026, to allow time for design team responses and incorporation into a future addendum. Additionally, BP 31 is tasked with sawcutting track edges in both North and South D Zones to prevent damage while facilitating demolition and preparation for new systems.
The clarification document does not contain pricing information, funding sources, set-asides, contract terms, or renewal options. Several line items require bidders to submit alternate pricing (indicated by blank lines for dollar amounts), including revised Alternate 5 for demo and removal of existing turf and shock pad under BP 31, Alternate 6 for complete removal of existing turf base and drainage systems at band field with two pricing options, and alternates under BP 32C and BP 32D for netting replacement and turf weight specifications. The document serves as an interim communication mechanism pending receipt of responses from the design team regarding outstanding bid RFIs.
