Univ. of Washington, Husky Den HUB Dining Reupholstery ITB

The University of Washington's Housing & Food Services (HFS) has issued an Invitation to Bid (ITB) for the reupholstery of the Husky Den dining area in the Husky Union Building located on the UW Seattle campus. The awarded supplier will be responsible for removing the existing upholstery, performing the reupholstery work off-site, and then reinstalling the finished product. This project will be phased to ensure some seating remains available for dining patrons. The ITB has a mandatory walkthrough on September 13, 2024, with responses due on September 20, 2024. The contract is expected to be awarded in early October 2024, with the ideal work period between December 1, 2024, and January 3, 2025. No work will be permitted from January 6 to March 14, 2025, with a secondary work period from March 15 to March 30, 2025. Bidders must meet several minimum qualifications, including relevant experience, an office/workshop location within 200 miles of Seattle, a current business license, access to necessary upholstery materials, and the ability to provide appropriate transportation and labor to complete the project on schedule. The contract will be awarded to one supplier, but HFS is open to a multiple award if there is a compelling reason to do so.

This solicitation is being conducted solely through the University of Washington's Workday Strategic Sourcing system and is open to all qualified vendors. No set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond are mentioned. The ITB does not list any incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor does it provide any information on existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The ITB does not specify a budget range or award value for this project.
