DFCM Construction - Prequalified Mechanical Stage II - Davis Technical College - IDF HVAC Replacement - Project #27050220

The State of Utah Division of Facilities Construction and Management (DFCM) is requesting bids for mechanical Stage II construction services at Davis Technical College in Kaysville to remove and replace existing data room split systems in the Main Building and the Barlow Building, with bids due August 25, 2026 and a mandatory bidders meeting on August 5. Only contractors prequalified under DFCM's Stage I prequalification process for mechanical contractors are eligible to bid.

The scope involves demolition of existing split direct expansion (DX) cooling systems, condensate pumps, refrigerant piping, electrical connections, and thermostats; installation of three new wall-mounted split DX units (two 36,000 BTU/hour units and one 36,000 BTU/hour unit) with condensate and refrigerant piping, rooftop condensing units with hail guards and stands, and BACnet-capable thermostats. Work must be performed during normal business hours (8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday–Friday) with 72 hours' notice required for activities affecting occupancy. The contractor must coordinate with design-build electrical contractors for electrical work per 2020 NEC standards and ensure roofing work is performed by the warranty holder (Perks Roofing). An asbestos survey identified regulated ACM including duct gaskets and black mastic in sampled areas; contractors must comply with NESHAP standards during demolition.

The construction cost estimate is $60,000. Substantial completion is due December 1, 2026, with liquidated damages of $150 per day for delays. A bid bond equal to 5% of the bid amount on AIA A310-2010 form must accompany each bid. Subcontractor lists are due within 24 hours of bid opening; all first-tier subcontractors with bids of $20,000 or more must be listed. Questions are due August 13, 2026, with addenda posted by August 17. Award will be made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Bids are submitted via the U3P website. Performance ratings on this project may affect the contractor's prequalified status; contractors must maintain an overall performance rating of 4.0 or greater to retain prequalification eligibility for future DFCM contracts.
