Elmcrest Elevator Controls

The State of Iowa's Department of Administrative Services is seeking a contractor for the Elmcrest Elevator Controls project at the Woodward Resource Center, specifically requesting quotes for fire recall modifications to a single hydraulic elevator. The project involves installing a new FEO-K1 fire recall switch with a red bezel, connecting relay signals to the elevator controller, and installing fire signage. The solicitation (RFQ9259401-01) requires a comprehensive upgrade to the existing 1980 ESI control system to meet current ANSI A17.1 fire service requirements. All on-site personnel must pass a background check, and the contractor will be responsible for providing complete documentation, including operation and maintenance manuals. The pre-bid meeting was held on April 4, 2024, at 9:00 AM, with quotes due through the Iowa IMPACS Procurement System by April 11, 2024, at 2:00 PM CDT. The project must be completed by June 28, 2024, with a targeted substantial completion date in late June 2024.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly mentioned in the documentation. The contract will be awarded as a Consensus 802 Agreement with a lump sum pricing structure, using FOB Destination and Freight Pre-Paid shipping terms. No performance or payment bond is required, though a project-specific Certificate of Insurance must be provided before contract execution. Contractors will need to submit a list of subcontractors and suppliers within 48 hours of bidding, and must include a 1% closeout line item in their Schedule of Values. The project will utilize Procore for project management at no cost to the trade contractor, with DocuSign used for contracts and completion certificates. While a specific budget range was not disclosed, the project involves a single elevator control modification at the Woodward Resource Center, suggesting a specialized, targeted scope of work.
