Renovation of an educational facility in Platteville, Wisconsin. Completed plans call for the renovation of a 33,704-square-foot, four-story above grade educational facility.

This project is being let using a new single prime bidding and contracting process. DFD will publicly bid the applicable mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection (MEP) divisions of work first. Within 5 days of the MEP bid opening, DFD will identify a lowest, qualified, responsible, certified bidder in each applicable MEP division of work. These successful MEP bids must be included in all general prime contractor bids received. No later than 5 days after DFD identifies the successful MEP bids, DFD will publicly open general prime contractor bids. General prime contractor bids that do not include the successful MEP bids will be rejected. The state will enter into a single contract with the lowest, qualified, responsible, certified general prime contractor and this general prime contractor will enter into subcontracts with the successful MEP bidders. In general the work consists of the renovation of 7,090 square feet on the first floor of Ullrich Hall (a 33,704 square foot, 4-story building initially constructed in 1916 with major renovations and addition in 2004) to support the Physician Assistant program. This is a new program with no existing space. The renovated space will create the following to specifically support the Physician Assistant program: neuroscience lab, clinical exam room suite, dedicated lecture room with streaming video, prep and storage space, student locker room (no shower or toilet), student breakroom, and student silent study space. No deposit is required to obtain documents for bidding purposes Bid Guarantee in the amount of 10% of the Bid must accompany each bid submitted. The 2017-2019 Wisconsin State Budget (2017 Wisconsin Act 59) repealed Wisconsin's prevailing wage laws. Effective September 23, 2017, state prevailing wage requirements on state building projects no longer apply. These changes take effect for projects advertised for bid after September 23, 2017. This change does not affect the Federal Davis Bacon Act requirements.
