The Cedar Rapids Community School District is seeking sealed proposals for the replacement of its cellular distributed antenna system (DAS) at the Educational Leadership and Support Center (ELSC). The project aims to upgrade the existing cellular infrastructure to improve indoor coverage for major carriers such as Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile, ensuring enhanced connectivity within the facility. Bids must be submitted electronically through the District’s designated online procurement portal (IonWave) by November 18, 2025, with no alternative submission methods accepted. The process includes a mandatory pre-bid meeting scheduled for November 5, 2025, and requires bidders to demonstrate qualifications, including certification from Nextivity and relevant project experience. The district reserves the right to reject any or all proposals and to waive informalities, emphasizing that costs should exclude federal or state taxes. The scope of work involves surveys, procurement, removal of existing systems, installation, testing, and commissioning of the new DAS infrastructure, designed to support cellular service for multiple carriers. The contract size is estimated between $500,000 and $1,500,000. Bidders are responsible for correct electronic submission and must include detailed project documentation, pricing, and compliance information. Additionally, vendors must provide a signed acknowledgment certifying that no owner, operator, or manager with a sex offense conviction against minors is involved in the project, aligning with district policies. The district emphasizes transparency in bid evaluation, with results communicated post-award, and maintains the right to reject proposals that do not meet specified requirements or standards.
