RFB 27-004 Keyes Building Passenger Elevator Upgrade

Tom Green County is soliciting competitive sealed bids for the upgrade of the passenger elevator located in the Edd B. and Frances Frink Keyes Building at 113 West Beauregard Avenue, San Angelo, Texas. The project requires a Texas-licensed vendor to provide all labor, tools, equipment, and materials necessary to perform the upgrades as specified in the project manual and drawings. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsible bidder, with the selection process governed by Texas Government Code Chapter 2269. Bids must be submitted in sealed envelopes by 2:00 p.m. on December 9, 2026, and must include a signed original, a copy, a submission affidavit, and a completed Form 1295. The contract includes a project contingency allowance of 20,000 dollars and requires a performance bond for bids exceeding 100,000 dollars. Compliance with the Buy American Act, prevailing wage rates, and ADA requirements for jamb pads is mandatory. The vendor must adhere to strict federal and state regulations, including the Clean Air Act and Federal Water Pollution Control Act for contracts over 150,000 dollars, as well as Equal Employment Opportunity and domestic preference standards. Payment will be processed monthly via AIA G702 and G703 forms. Because the building remains occupied during construction, the contractor must implement comprehensive safety precautions and coordinate with the owner to minimize operational disruptions.
