A mandatory pre-bid walk-through is scheduled for Monday, February 9, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. MST, bidders must submit questions by Thursday, February 12, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. MST, and all bids are due Wednesday, February 18, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. MST via the Utah Public Procurement Place (U3P) Bonfire portal.

All bidders must comply with the Jordan School District's Standard Terms and Conditions and certify compliance with Utah Code 63G-27 (S.B. 97) regarding economic boycott restrictions, including prohibitions on boycotts targeting the State of Israel, traditional energy companies, firearm manufacturers, and companies not meeting specified environmental or social standards. Bids exceeding $50,000 require a bid bond equal to five percent of the total bid price from a corporate surety licensed in Utah and listed in U.S. Treasury Circular 270 with an AM Best Rating of A-VIII or better, and successful contractors must provide performance and payment bonds equal to the total bid price before work commences. All contractors must comply with E-Verify requirements, the Utah State Energy Code, and applicable building code standards, and any work involving student data systems or collection must comply with the Standard Student Data Privacy Agreement (NDPA) incorporating FERPA, PPRA, and COPPA requirements. The contract incorporates AIA document standards (A201-2017 General Conditions, A310-2010 Bid Bond, A312-2010 Payment and Performance Bonds, and A701-2018 Instructions to Bidders) and requires compliance with the International Building Code, National Electric Code, OSHA regulations, and all applicable federal, state, and local laws. No specific budget range or contract value is stated in the procurement documents; however, the requirement for bid bonds and performance bonds on projects exceeding $50,000 indicates the anticipated contract value likely exceeds that threshold. Bids remain valid for 30 days following the receipt deadline.
