SLCo LIB131171 Viridian Stadium Seating Replacement - RFB

Salt Lake County Contracts and Procurement, on behalf of Library Services, is issuing a Request for Bids (RFB LIB131171) for the replacement of telescopic seating at the Viridian Event Center located at 8030 S 1825 W, West Jordan, Utah. The procurement seeks qualified vendors to remove existing seating systems and furnish and install a new electrically operated, multi-tiered telescoping platform seating system accommodating 280-300 seats. The replacement seating must be approximately 60 feet wide with 34-inch row spacing, three aisles with foldable end rails and removable aisle rails, and fully upholstered chairs with carpeted decks and fascia boards. Bidders must provide comprehensive documentation including shop drawings with seat assembly layouts, heights, row spacing, and aisle widths; wiring diagrams for electrical connections; graphics layout drawings; product data for decking materials; and anticipated lead time. The project award will be made to the responsive, responsible bidder submitting the lowest cost including all delivery charges, with bids required to be submitted by June 18, 2026. A mandatory site visit will be held at the Viridian Event Center at a date and time specified in the Utah Public Procurement Place (U3P) Bonfire online system, with bidders submitting questions through that same system prior to the specified question deadline. Following award, the vendor must provide demonstration and training at its sole expense, maintain a service facility and parts inventory within 25 miles of Salt Lake County, and provide three references from current users of the same equipment.

The procurement does not identify any specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, though Salt Lake County's Preference System allows bidders to earn up to one additional point on their proposal score for demonstrating either an Employee Health Care Preference or a Veterans and Companywide Hiring Preference, contingent upon submission of completed certification forms and supporting documentation with the bid. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the solicitation documents. Bidders must furnish certificates of insurance verifying commercial general liability coverage of $1,000,000 per occurrence with $3,000,000 aggregate limits, commercial automobile liability insurance of $1,000,000 per occurrence, workers' compensation insurance as required by Utah law, and Inland Marine Installation Coverage with limits commensurate with equipment replacement value and deductibles not exceeding $5,000. All vendors must certify compliance with federal, state, and local environmental laws and provide non-debarment certifications confirming they have not been suspended or excluded from contracting. The solicitation documents do not specify an estimated award value or budget range for this project.
