Snow Removal Services - Livermore Elementary School

Poudre School District R-1 is requesting sealed bids for snow removal and ice mitigation services at Livermore Elementary School, with bids due October 26, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. MT. The awarded vendor must be based in Larimer County — a geographic eligibility restriction that filters the vendor pool.

The scope covers removal of snow and ice from the main entrance, sidewalks, parking spaces, bus circles, and building entrances on an as-needed basis at a rural mountain location approximately 21 miles north of Fort Collins at 5,884 feet elevation. The vendor must respond and mobilize onsite within one hour of notification and complete all work by 7:00 a.m. The vendor furnishes all labor, materials, and equipment and assumes liability for any damage caused by vendor or subcontractor personnel.

The District intends to award a one-year contract with an option to renew for four additional one-year terms. No estimated contract value is specified in the source. Evaluation prioritizes the most responsive and responsible bidder meeting specifications and deemed in the District's best interest. Vendors must submit pricing on Attachment C, provide proof of adequate insurance per Attachment B, and complete reference forms listing three similar projects with Colorado K-12 public school references preferred. All work must comply with EPA, OSHA, DOT, and applicable state regulations. The vendor must maintain a monitored phone number for dispatch coordination and conduct site visits at the vendor's own expense to verify scope and identify safety issues prior to work commencement.

Questions are due October 14, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. MT. The District reserves the right to reject any or all bids and negotiate with one or more vendors. Vendors may appeal an award decision within 72 hours of notice. Colorado law and Larimer County venue govern the contract.
