About this opportunity
Gainesville Regional Utilities (GRU) is soliciting bids for the Lift Station #1 Improvements Project, a critical infrastructure upgrade located at 3311 SW 2nd Avenue in Gainesville, Florida. The project involves replacing the existing lift station configuration of two interconnected wet wells and four submersible pumps with three 140 HP pumps and a 45 HP jockey pump. Comprehensive improvements include constructing a new electrical building, installing new electrical equipment, updating the control system, and performing necessary piping and civil work. A mandatory pre-proposal meeting is scheduled for November 30, 2023, at 10:00 am, with a site visit to follow, and the response deadline is January 9, 2024, at 2:00 pm. All submissions must be made electronically through the GRU e-Procurement Portal. The project is partially funded by the Resilient Florida Program through the State of Florida Department of Environmental Protection and requires wage certification in accordance with the Davis-Bacon Act. Critical project requirements include maintaining current pumping capacity during all construction phases without service interruptions, with contractors required to provide comprehensive documentation including a Respondent's Certification, Bid Bond, Public Construction Bond, Pricing Response Form, Project Milestones Construction Schedule, and Major Equipment Response Form.
The procurement emphasizes participation from small and minority businesses, women's business enterprises, and labor surplus firms. Contractors must comply with federal requirements, including equal employment opportunity, clean air and water act compliance, and domestic procurement preferences. The project is subject to specific federal and state regulations, with a focus on encouraging diverse business participation. The total project budget is approximately $11,865,000, with $4,746,000 in federal funding and $7,119,000 in local match, as outlined in the executed grant agreement. The contract utilizes a lump sum pricing structure with liquidated damages of $1,500 per day for delays in substantial completion and $500 per day for delays in final completion. Contractors will be required to provide performance and payment bonds and maintain specific insurance coverages. The project has a defined timeline, with the grant agreement running from the date of execution through September 30, 2026, and aims to increase infrastructure resiliency and reduce sanitary sewer overflows during storm and flood events.
Opportunity text
Gainesville Regional Utilities (GRU) owns and operates Lift Station No. 1 (LS No. 1), which collects raw wastewater and conveys it to the Kanapaha Water Reclamation Facility (KWRF). Lift Station No. 1 is located at 3311 SW 2ND Avenue, Gainesville, FL 32601. The current station consists of two interconnected wet wells and a total of four submersible pumps (three 75-horsepower pumps and one 35 HP jockey pump).
In order to accommodate current peak and future flows, LS No. 1 will be upgraded to three 140 HP pumps and a 45 HP jockey pump. In conjunction with the larger pumps, a new electrical building, electrical equipment, control system, piping, and civil work will also be included in this project. As the largest lift station in Gainesville, the sequencing of construction will be critical to the success of the project. The lift station will need to maintain its current pumping capacity during all phases of construction with no interruptions to service.
The Lift Station #1 Improvements Project is partially funded by the Resilient Florida Program with the State of Florida Department of Environmental Protection.
