DFCM Construction - VBS Consultant Services - Design Services - Department of Transportation - Multiple Pump House Replacements and Repairs - Project #27329900

The State of Utah’s Division of Facilities Construction and Management is soliciting proposals under solicitation number CS27011 for the repair and replacement of five pump houses to meet UDOTS needs, with a construction budget of $3,242,656.00. The project requires comprehensive construction services including structural modifications, pump upgrades, electrical work, and material replacements, all to be executed in strict conformance with the Contract Documents, which include drawings, specifications, general and supplementary conditions, and applicable codes. Proposals must be submitted via the U3P portal by 12:00 noon on August 12, 2026, and must adhere to rigid formatting guidelines: a single PDF containing four sections—Cover Page (1 page), Letter of Introduction (1 page), Organizational Chart and Qualifications (7 pages), and Project Schedule (1 page)—for a maximum total of 10 pages, with all text in minimum 12-point font and 0.5-inch margins. Additional mandatory documents, including the DFCM Termination or Debarment Form and Past Performance References Form, must be uploaded as separate PDFs, with file sizes capped at 1 GB each and no hyperlinks or non-PDF content permitted. Contract administration requires the contractor to manage all work in accordance with a Critical Path Method schedule, achieving Substantial Completion within the defined contract time while ensuring full compliance with safety, legal, and technical standards. Responsibility for inspections lies with the contractor, who must facilitate access for DFCM and the Architect/Engineer and correct any nonconforming work at their own cost. Acceptance is finalized through documented approvals, including the Certificate of Substantial Completion and final payment certification, with payment applications submitted on DFCM-approved forms and reviewed for compliance with change orders and contractual obligations. Although no formal FAR clauses or evaluation factors are explicitly defined, proposal evaluation will likely weigh technical qualifications, management approach, and project scheduling experience, with an implied emphasis on prior performance and capability. The contract does not specify a basis of award, nor does it include socioeconomic set-asides, key personnel requirements, or option clauses. Payment details, accounting codes, and invoicing systems (e.g., WAWF) are not provided, and no named COR, COTR, or PCO contacts are identified. All work must be performed at the project sites across Utah, with materials delivered to site as directed, and bonding and insurance requirements are mandated under Article 10
