South Sevier High School Auditorium Remodel

The State of Utah Division of Purchasing, conducting procurement on behalf of the Sevier School District, is requesting proposals for construction remodel of the South Sevier High School auditorium, with bids due October 15, 2026 at 2:00 p.m., a mandatory contractor walkthrough on October 1, 2026 at 9:00 a.m., and questions due October 8, 2026 at 5:00 p.m.

The scope is an 8,000-square-foot interior remodel of the existing auditorium at South Sevier High School in Monroe, Utah, including masonry brick and wood stud construction with updates to mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire suppression systems. Construction is anticipated to begin December 1, 2026 and reach substantial completion by June 30, 2027 — a 243-calendar-day contract duration. Liquidated damages apply for delays, ranging from $100 per day for 0–14 days of delay to $1,000 per day for delays of 29 days or more. A contingency allowance of $125,000 is included; change orders above that allowance are subject to markup limitations of 15% for changes up to $10,000 and 10% for changes exceeding $10,000.

Evaluation criteria total 100 points: 75 points for cost proposal, 7.5 points for proposed construction schedule, 10 points for contractor qualifications and experience with similar projects, 5 points for subcontractors list and project cost breakdown, and 2.5 points for references. A minimum technical score of 60 percent (15 points) is required for proposal advancement. Cost points are calculated with the lowest proposed price receiving 100 percent of available points; proposals exceeding 200 percent of the lowest price receive zero cost points.

Bidders must provide a bid guarantee of 5 percent of the bid amount, a Performance Bond and Payment Bond equal to 100 percent of contract price prior to construction commencement, and a detailed cost breakdown and complete subcontractor list within 24 hours of bid opening. All contractors must comply with E-Verify requirements and equal opportunity employer provisions. Responses must be submitted through the Utah Procurement Portal (U3P) with technical and cost proposals segregated. A single contract award will go to the responsive and responsible vendor with the highest evaluation score.
