Sewer Service & Building Sewer Replacement at the Museum of Northwest Colorado

The City of Craig is seeking proposals for a comprehensive sewer service and building sewer replacement project at the Museum of Northwest Colorado, located at 590 Yampa Avenue in Craig, Colorado. The procurement involves extensive sewer infrastructure work, including removing and replacing concrete pads, excavating and replacing existing 4" PVC sewer pipes, installing cleanouts, and relocating HVAC equipment. Contractors must possess specific licensing credentials, including RX-RE Excavating, TX-TP Plumbing, and TX-TM Mechanical licenses to be eligible for the project. A mandatory site visit with Marlin Eckhoff or Dan Davidson is required prior to bid submission. Proposal evaluation criteria will focus on client services, proposal clarity, respondent capabilities, references, and demonstrated experience in municipal projects, construction management, and heating/cooling installations. The proposal submission deadline is July 1, 2025, at 3:00 pm (MST), with bids to be opened and read aloud at the Craig City Clerk's office at City Hall, located at 300 West Fourth Street, Craig, CO 81625.

The City reserves the right to award the contract to the proposal that best meets their needs, which may not necessarily be the lowest-cost bid. No specific set-aside designations or restrictions on organizational types were mentioned in the documentation. The project includes a 5% retainage for contracts over $10,000, payable upon successful completion. Delay damages are established at $50 per day if the project is not completed by December 2, 2024, with exceptions made for COVID-related delays. The City will issue permits without charging permit fees, which may provide additional cost benefits for the selected contractor. While a specific budget range was not explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the sewer replacement project suggests a significant investment in infrastructure improvements for the Museum of Northwest Colorado.
