Description
The School District of Philadelphia is seeking a qualified electrical contractor to replace the existing bell‑and‑gong fire‑alarm system at John Marshall School (4500 Griscom St.) with a new addressable fire‑alarm system that includes voice evacuation, upgraded conduit, fire‑rated penetrations, and complete demolition of the legacy system after commissioning. The scope covers design‑build installation, testing, commissioning, documentation, and removal of all existing fire‑alarm hardware, as well as coordination of subcontractors, weekly meetings, and delivery of as‑built drawings and operation manuals.

• Full replacement of fire‑alarm hardware with voice‑evacuation capability.
• Installation of new 3/4‑in. EMT conduit, fire‑rated wall penetrations, and underground trenching as needed.
• Comprehensive demolition, testing, commissioning, and documentation, plus project management responsibilities for all trades.
