City hall first floor police department restroom renovations

The City of Sun Prairie, Wisconsin is seeking bids for a comprehensive renovation of the Police Department's first floor restroom facilities through Request for Bid (RFB) #19-BM26. The project scope involves complete removal and replacement of finishes and select plumbing fixtures, including modifications to existing toilet facilities, flush valves, mixing valves, lighting fixtures, and toilet accessories. Specific work includes selective demolition, interior architectural woodwork, mirror installation, gypsum board work, ceramic tile installation, resinous flooring, painting, toilet compartments, plumbing fixtures, and electrical updates. A mandatory pre-bid conference was scheduled for October 22, 2019, at 1:30 p.m., with site access available by contacting Chad Courtier, Building Maintenance Supervisor, at 608-825-0763. Sealed bids were due by 2:00 p.m. on November 5, 2019, at the City Clerk's Office, with the contract completion deadline set for February 14, 2020, and a maximum construction duration of five weeks. Bidders were required to submit a 10 percent bid bond or certified check, and the successful contractor must execute Performance and Payment Bonds each equal to 100 percent of the bid amount within ten days of the Notice of Award.

The procurement appears open to all qualified contractors, with no specific set-aside designations mentioned. Bidders must comply with Wisconsin Public Records Law and Open Meetings Law requirements and obtain background clearance and fingerprinting for all employees and subcontractors, as the project involves a secure Police Department facility governed by Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) Security Policy. Insurance requirements are substantial, including Workers' Compensation, Commercial General Liability of $1,000,000 per occurrence, Automobile Liability of $1,000,000 per occurrence, and an Umbrella Liability of $5,000,000, with the City named as an additional insured. While no specific budget range was explicitly stated, the comprehensive renovation requirements and strict performance standards suggest a significant project investment. Contractors must adhere to all applicable federal and state OSHA requirements, though prevailing wage does not apply. Living wages, as defined by the City's ordinance, do apply to this project. The City reserves the right to reject any or all bids and may hold bids for up to 60 days for review and investigation before making a final award.
