As-Needed General Construction Services

The City of Brighton, Colorado is requesting proposals for as-needed general construction services on an on-call basis, with proposals due November 9, 2026 at 2:00 PM MST via BidNetDirect. Questions are due October 14, 2026 at 10:00 AM MST, and addenda will be issued by October 22, 2026.

The scope encompasses carpentry and handyman-type construction work including wood and steel stud framing, siding, window and door installation, finish work, painting, ceilings, flooring, structural demolition, cabinet building and installation, fencing, masonry work, water and mold mitigation, and asbestos abatement. Services are performed upon receipt of task orders from the City, with individual project requirements varying in scope and complexity. Emergency work must commence within three hours of City notification and is billed on a time and materials basis.

The contract term is one year from execution with the City holding the discretionary option to renew annually for up to four additional one-year terms, not to exceed five years total. Historically, master price agreements have carried annual not-to-exceed amounts of $80,000 to $100,000, with average task orders approximately $8,000. Pricing must be submitted on a fully burdened hourly basis for labor, with separate markups for materials and equipment applied to actual wholesale costs only. Respondents must propose firm pricing for the base term and each optional renewal term, with price increases limited to no more than 3% annually without sufficient justification. A 5% retainage fee applies to construction task orders exceeding $150,000. Performance and Payment Bonds equal to 100% of task order amounts may be required, along with a Maintenance Bond for two years post-completion. The City reserves the right to supply materials and award to one or multiple contractors.

Evaluation criteria include project approach, project management, technical qualifications, schedule and timeline, price and terms (weighted 25 points of 100), historic satisfaction and service level, and safety record. Respondents must provide proof of good standing from Colorado, complete all required City forms including Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Self-Certification and Affidavit of Residency, submit an Experience Modification Rating letter documenting five years of safety records, resumes for key personnel, organizational charts, and lists of past completed projects.
