The scope encompasses complete demolition and removal of existing flooring and wall tiles across the main library, genealogy area, children's area, lobby, bathrooms, and conference room (approximately 15,000 of the building's 20,000 square feet); subfloor and wall preparation; installation of commercial-grade LVP, tiles, and carpet as approved by the Coffee County Library Board; interior and exterior painting with Sherwin Williams or better; replacement of main restroom fixtures and floor and wall tiles (commercial grade); and replacement of exterior mechanical room double doors. The project also includes installation of a solar pergola with solar panels in the fenced area adjacent to the HVAC units. Work must be phased into at least four phases to minimize library closure; Phases One, Two, and Four allow limited operations; Phase Three requires complete closure.

Contractors must obtain all required permits, maintain site safety, and keep work areas clean and dust-free. Bids must include realistic project-completion timeframes. Payment is processed upon invoice submission at the completion of each agreed-upon phase.

Evaluation is weighted as follows: Overall Price (40%), Relevant Experience (15%), Prior Experience with SRLS or other library systems or county governments (15%), Warranty Terms and Duration (10%), and References with minimum three required (20%). SRLS will select the most cost-effective contractor while considering demonstrable quality of work with other library systems or county governments.
