Site work for a communication facility in Boise, Idaho. Completed plans call for site work for a communication facility.

This DPW project consists of (7) individual projects, at different locations, with similar scopes to be managed by a single Design-Build Team. As identified in the table above, scopes range from replacing Communication Shelter buildings to replacing Towers, or both. The existing structures are at capacity and do not comply with Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) standards. A Statement of Work (SOW) has been prepared for each site by Public Safety Communications (PSC), which include a detailed scope of work, location and photos of the Tower projects identified. Design-Build work for the Summit Lake Project listed as Priority #1 will be performed by the regional utility company: Salmon River Electric, the project will be a Miscellaneous line item, but remain in the overall project budget. Current Geotechnical Soils Reports (w/Resistivity testing at Tower locations) will be completed by the time Design-Build contract negotiations are complete. DPW is requesting proposals for a Design-Builder who will be a team player, who will work closely and in harmony with DPW and PSC and be proactive with the design and construction processes (design phases, Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses plan reviews/permitting, early bid packages, identify long lead items). It will be essential to work closely with PSC when specifying equipment that may require sole sourcing due to quality, reliability and system compatibility requirements at the various, remote, mountaintop sites with extreme weather and conditions. Most important to PSC is quality of work, reputation within the industry and years of experience. The Design-Build team will be required to provide all services as per the standard DPW Design-Build Agreement and be licensed as required for the design and construction work.
