Old Salt Lake City Main Library Remodel

The Old Salt Lake City Main Library Remodel (FAC25013) is a lump sum construction project managed by the Salt Lake City Corporation. Located at 209 E 500 S, Salt Lake City, UT, the project involves an interior remodel to convert existing gallery and office spaces into city-occupied office space and after-school program space. The scope of work includes millwork, interior doors, framing, floor and wall finishes, plumbing, HVAC, electrical, low-voltage communications, and security systems. The total project cost is estimated at 16 million dollars, with a performance period of 155 calendar days from the Notice to Proceed, followed by a 21-day window to complete punch list items. The contract will be awarded to the most responsive and lowest qualified responsible bidder among a select group of pre-qualified general contractors. Key evaluation factors include the bid price and compliance with Salt Lake City Code Section 3.24.115 regarding qualified health insurance, which can make a bidder more responsive even if their price is up to 10 percent higher than a non-compliant bidder. Bidders must provide bid security of at least 5 percent of the total bid amount and are required to submit certifications regarding non-discrimination, safety programs, and veteran recruitment. Final payment is processed via AIA documents and is due 30 days after approval by the city finance department.
