Renovation of a municipal facility in Seattle, Washington. Completed plans call for the renovation of a municipal facility.

A ninety (90) day trial period applies to contracts awarded by this solicitation. During the trial period, vendors must successfully perform. Failure to perform may cause immediate cancellation of the contract. If a dispute occurs or a discrepancy arises as to acceptability of product or service, the City's decision prevails. The City will pay only for authorized orders received up to termination. If the contract is terminated within the trial period, the City may award the contract to the next low responsive Bidder by mutual agreement with that Bidder. Any new award will be for remaining contract work and is also subject to a trial period. Delivery is required by April 15, 2019. Whoever can meet the delivery schedule will be awarded the bid. If multiple vendors can meet the delivery schedule, then the vendor with the lowest price will be awarded the bid. If no vendors can meet the delivery schedule, then the bid will be awarded to the vendor with the shortest delivery time. If the manufacturer discontinues or replaces a product, Vendor may request the City accept a substitute product for the contract. Pricing for a product replacement or substitute must be the same discount rate as provided to the City on the original product.This is an opportunity for Vendors to raise concerns regarding specifications, terms, conditions, and any requirements of this solicitation. Failure to raise concerns over any issues at this opportunity will be a consideration in any protest filed regarding such items known as of this pre-bid conference. Those unable to attend in person may participate via telephone. The Buyer will set up a conference bridge for Vendors interested in participating via conference call. Contact the Buyer at least two days in advance of the conference when requesting access by phone. Submit questions to the Buyer by the deadline (see page 1). The City prefers such questions by e-mail to the City Buyer. Failure to request clarification of any inadequacy, omission, or conflict will not relieve Vendor of any responsibilities herein or in any subsequent contract. The Vendor is responsible to assure they received responses to the questions if issued. The submitter has full responsibility to ensure the response arrives at City Purchasing within the deadline. A submittal after the time fixed for receipt will not be accepted unless the lateness is waived by the City as immaterial based upon a specific fact-based review. Responses arriving after the deadline may be returned unopened to the Vendor, or the City may accept the package and make a determination as to lateness. 1. Paper-copy submittals should be in a sealed box or envelope marked and addressed with the CPCS Buyer name, bid title and number. If packages are not marked, the Bidder has all risks of the package being misplaced and not properly delivered. 2. The submittal may be hand-delivered or must otherwise be received by the Buyer at the address provided, by the submittal deadline. Delivery errors will result without careful attention to the proper address. 3. Submittals and their packaging (boxes or envelopes) should be marked with the name and address of the Proposer. In lieu of a paper copy, bidders may submit bids via e-mail process as described below. All other bid requirements remain the same. The City uses a secure mailbox to receive and protect bids for a sealed opening at the designated date and time. To submit an electronic copy, bidders can e-mail their bid documents by the bid opening date and time (Table 1 or as otherwise amended) to securebid@seattle.gov.
