Traffic & Signs Maintenance Facility Improvements Project

The City of Lubbock is soliciting bids for the Traffic & Signs Maintenance Facility Improvements Project, a building envelope renovation at 202 N Ash Avenue, Lubbock, Texas 79401, involving approximately 7,116 square feet of existing facility space without altering occupancy group, construction type, or conditioned square footage. The project is structured as a single prime contract with a detailed scope defined by the Building Envelope Improvements Project drawing set dated May 28, 2026, and supporting specifications, focusing on removal and replacement of unsatisfactory roofing components including metal decks, insulation, wood decks, and wooden nailers, priced on a unit basis per square foot or board foot requiring prior engineer and owner approval. All work must comply with AIA Document A201-2017 as modified to replace “Architect” with “Engineer,” ADA-ABA Accessibility Guidelines, environmental regulations under 40 CFR 82, and Texas Building Code standards. The contract mandates a one-year warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, with final acceptance contingent upon issuance of a certified punch list, submission of final insurance coverage evidence, and a pest-control inspection report. Bids must be submitted by July 9, 2026, either electronically through Bonfire or via one original paper copy delivered to the City’s Director of Purchasing. Compliance is evaluated as a pass/fail gate before price consideration, with disqualification possible for failure to meet specifications, inadequate qualifications, poor safety records, or lack of past performance. The award will be made to the lowest responsive and qualified bidder, with preference given to local bidders in the event of a tie. Contractors must provide comprehensive insurance coverage—including $5 million general liability, $1 million for subcontractors, $500,000 automobile liability, workers’ compensation as required by Texas law, and builders risk coverage equal to the contract amount—with the City of Lubbock and KWA Engineering named as additional insureds on a primary, non-contributory basis with waiver of subrogation. All materials must be delivered in original sealed containers with proper labeling of manufacturer, product, date of manufacture, and storage instructions, and wood products must be properly stacked for air circulation. The Notice to Proceed will be issued 30 days after award, with work required to commence within 14 days and be substantially completed within 60 consecutive calendar days from that notice. Daily prosecution of work is mandatory on
