Ice Arena Perimeter Slab (ONLY) Replacement

The District of Houston is seeking a qualified and experienced General Contractor for the replacement of the ice arena perimeter concrete slab, specifically addressing the challenges associated with demolition and replacement over active refrigerant pipes. The project is scheduled to begin in April 2026, following the completion of the current ice programs, and must be completed with a Ready-for-Takeover status by mid-August 2026 to allow the next ice program to commence on time. This work requires careful risk management due to the sensitive infrastructure beneath the slab. The contract will be governed by the CCDC 2 2020 standard contract with supplementary conditions from BCDC 2 2022, and bonding is a mandatory requirement. The solicitation was posted on January 16, 2026, with a response deadline of February 16, 2026. The project is issued by the District of Houston under the Government of Canada, with Scott Sanders serving as the primary contracting authority. The scope is limited to the perimeter slab replacement only, and contractors are expected to demonstrate relevant expertise in managing similar projects with active refrigerant pipes in place.
