Jordan Park and 900 South River Park Improvements

Salt Lake City is requesting sealed bids on park improvements at Jordan Park and 900 South River Park (PRK21070) with bids due November 4, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. local time and a pre-bid conference on October 27 at 10:00 a.m. via Microsoft Teams. The award will be made under Salt Lake City's Value-Based Procurement Program, which considers work-environment factors including nondiscrimination policies, apprenticeship sponsorship, drug testing programs, and local small business status when bids fall within specified ranges of the lowest bid.

Work consists of removing existing concrete paving where necessary, installing concrete and gravel paths, installing electrical panels and outlets, planting and landscaping, modifying existing irrigation systems, and installing furnishings and ADA modifications at 1060 S 900 W, Salt Lake City. The contract will be awarded on a lump sum basis to the most responsive, lowest, qualified, responsible bidder.

Contract time is 180 calendar days after Notice to Proceed, with 15 additional days allowed for punch list completion. Liquidated damages are assessed at $250.00 per day for late completion. Bids must remain valid for 45 days after bid opening. Bid security of at least 5 percent of the total bid amount must accompany each submission. Performance and Payment Bonds are required upon award.

Bidders must submit a Work Environment Certification Form certifying compliance with drug and alcohol testing policies, veteran recruitment programs, job training programs, safety programs, and nondiscrimination policies; failure to certify all five items renders the bid non-responsive. Bidders are not required to be pre-qualified. Subcontracting is limited to 75 percent of the total work dollar value without written owner approval. Design consultant Alta Planning + Design and electrical engineer Envision Engineering are prohibited from serving as subcontractors.

Sealed bids are accepted electronically via Bonfire, by U.S. mail, or by hand delivery to 349 South 200 East, Suite 600, Salt Lake City.
