DFCM Construction - Prequalified General Stage II - Administrative Office of the Courts - Juvenile Court Fourth Floor Buildout - Project #26423150

The State of Utah Division of Facilities Construction and Management (DFCM) is requesting bids on a Stage II construction project—build-out of the fourth floor shelled space and remodeling of finished first floor space at the Administrative Office of the Courts Juvenile Court facility in Ogden—with bids due July 21, 2026, and a mandatory bidders' meeting on June 24. Eligibility is restricted to contractors prequalified under DFCM's Stage I Prequalification for Contractors process and currently listed on the DFCM Prequalified Contractors list as of the solicitation date. This is a low-bid procurement.

The scope encompasses demolition, framing, sheetrock, mechanical, electrical, and finish work for office, reception, restroom, and storage spaces on the fourth floor (new) and first floor (remodeled). All work must be completed during non-business hours—nights, after-hours, and weekends—to avoid disruption of facility operations. Work is located at 165 20th Street, Ogden, Utah. An asbestos survey dated May 7, 2026, found all thirteen building material samples tested negative for asbestos content. Approved plans and detailed specifications covering 28 construction divisions are provided; the contractor must prepare and maintain a Critical Path Method schedule using Primavera, MS Project, or Phoenix, updated monthly.

The construction cost estimate is $2,100,000. Substantial completion is February 1, 2027, with liquidated damages of $500 per day. The contractor must provide a bid bond of 5% of the bid amount on AIA Document A310-2010 and, upon award, performance and payment bonds of 100% of the contract sum on AIA Document A312-2010.

The Health Insurance Statement of Compliance Form applies because the contract value exceeds $2 million; contractors must certify compliance with Utah Code 26B-3-909 regarding qualified health insurance coverage for eligible employees. Subcontractors with bid amounts of $35,000 or more must be listed; subcontractor lists are due July 22, 2026, at 3:00 PM. Questions are due July 7, 2026; addenda deadline is July 13, 2026. Contractor performance at project completion will be rated; ratings below 4.0 may result in removal from the prequalified list for at least one year.
