Elevator Modernization at the High Point Detention Center

Guilford County Purchasing Department is requesting proposals for elevator modernization at the High Point Detention Center located at 507 East Green Drive, High Point, North Carolina, with bids due September 10, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Attendance at both a mandatory pre-bid ZoomGov meeting on August 25, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. and a mandatory site walkthrough at 3:00 p.m. the same day is a condition of bid responsiveness; failure to attend renders the bid non-responsive and ineligible for award consideration. This is a rebid (REBID #1).

The scope covers modernization of three existing secured overhead traction geared elevators (labeled 1–3), including remote car operating panels and associated machine room and control room improvements. The contractor must provide all required labor, tools, material, and equipment. Work is performed on-site at the High Point Detention Center.

Bidders must submit a bid bond, cashier's check, or certified check payable to Guilford County in an amount not less than 5 percent of the bid amount. The awarded contractor will be required to furnish a performance and payment bond for 100 percent of the contract price. Document clarification requests must be submitted via email to RND Architects, PA, the project architect, with copies to designated Guilford County contacts. Bidding documents, drawings, and specifications are available through Guilford County's Vendor Self Service automated bidding system. Guilford County reserves the right to reject any or all bids and to waive informalities.
