About this file
This is an Addendum No. 1 to Request for Proposals 953500-01 issued by the Iowa Department of Administrative Services for professional design services related to the WRC Linden Court Bay Window Replacement project at the Woodward Resource Center in Woodward, Iowa. The addendum modifies the designer's scope to include participation in bi-weekly conference calls during the active construction period, rather than monthly calls throughout construction. The original RFP sought design services for the replacement of approximately 88 operable exterior bay windows across four buildings (Linden A, B, C, and D), with evaluation and design for storm windows, screens, and lintel repair or replacement. Key deadlines include proposal submission on April 15, 2026, at 2:00 pm Central Time; 50% construction documents due May 29, 2026; 95% construction documents due June 26, 2026; and 100% construction documents due July 10, 2026. A non-mandatory pre-proposal conference was held on April 2, 2026, at the Woodward Resource Center. The designer contract was expected to execute the week of April 20, 2026, with design kickoff the week of April 27, 2026. Mandatory site visits are required for design kickoff, document reviews, pre-bid meeting, four construction field observations, substantial completion assessment, final completion verification, and a one-year warranty correction period visit.
The approximate construction budget is $603,900. Proposers must submit lump sum pricing inclusive of all reimbursable expenses, hourly rates with anticipated hours by position for all staff and sub-consultants, and unit pricing for additional construction inspection visits beyond the minimum required. Respondents must demonstrate relevant experience on similar projects completed within the last five years, identify qualified staff with appropriate credentials and certifications, and provide organizational charts and resumes of key personnel. The RFP specifies that hazardous materials abatement, including asbestos window glazing removal and temporary enclosures, will be handled by a separate abatement contractor bid package managed by the Owner. Spray testing will be required for completely installed window assemblies, and the water testing standard will be determined by the design professional. All design documents become copyright property of the State of Iowa and must be delivered in native computer format and PDF versions. Construction bidding is anticipated in August 2026, with construction execution from September 2026 through June 2027, and project closeout in July 2027.
