FPM - Campus Wide Elevator Modernization - 2024 - ReBid

Wayne State University is rebidding a campus‑wide elevator modernization program covering 24 elevators in 11 buildings, including academic, research, residential, and parking structures. The work is a turn‑key design‑build effort that requires demolition, replacement of machines, controllers, doors, safety systems, interior finishes, and the addition of closed‑circuit security cameras in selected cars. Each building is bid separately as a lump‑sum contract, and the university has already awarded four of the building contracts to different elevator contractors. Key contract features include: • Mandatory pre‑bid conference attendance; electronic PDF submission required; 5 % bid bond for bids ≥ $50 k. • Performance, payment, and insurance requirements (CGL $1 M per occurrence, $2 M aggregate; workers’ comp; excess/umbrella). • Warranty of one year, liquidated damages of $200 per day per building for schedule delays. • Compliance with WSU wage schedule, ADA, ASME A17.1, and local Detroit building codes. • Additional scope for AXIS P91 CCTV cameras with PoE+ networking and battery backup in multiple elevators.
