The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department is soliciting bids for the interior electrical work required to renovate the North Gateway Visitor Center at Silver Falls State Park in Silverton, Oregon. The scope of work includes rough-in electrical installation of raceways, conduits, and wiring; electrical finish work; low-voltage systems for data, communications, and audio-visual needs; and the installation of owner-furnished lighting fixtures and service entrance switch gear. The project also requires the contractor to provide power for ADA-compliant electrified door hardware. Performance is scheduled to begin upon the issuance of a Notice to Proceed, with substantial completion due by October 1, 2027, and final completion by November 1, 2027. The contract will be awarded to the responsible bidder who submits the lowest responsive bid. Bidders must submit their proposals via OregonBuys and include a bid security equal to 10 percent of the total bid amount. The successful contractor will be required to provide performance and payment bonds each totaling 100 percent of the contract value, as well as proof of insurance. While the project is governed by the General Conditions for OPRD Construction Contracts, the agency is exempt from the Public Contracting Code, including prevailing wage requirements. Additionally, the contractor must adhere to an Inadvertent Discovery Plan for archaeological and human remains and provide operational and safety training to the owner's personnel prior to final acceptance.
