The Savannah Convention Center is soliciting for bids to replace the existing audio-visual components in the facility. The below work is to include all material and labor to perform the necessary change out of the existing equipment to the new equipment. Please provide the duration of time needed to complete the removal of the existing and installation of the new system. This needs to be the complete time for each one. Please keep in mind that due to business in the facility these may need to be completed at separate times. If there is a pricing difference between separate mobilizations, please quote the project as such. Contractor is responsible for making sure their work area is secure and cleaned up daily. Contractor is responsible for removing all materials from the job site. Also remember we have an active Convention Center so work times may vary due to events we have inhouse. However, we will work with the selected contractor closely to minimize disruption in your schedule. The existing audio-visual system was installed in 1999/2000. There are two rooms that house the main equipment. If possible, we would like to move all the equipment into one room. Bidders will be responsible for the demo of the old equipment. The old equipment will be turned over to the Savannah Convention Center for disposal by facility guidelines. Bidders need to keep in mind that the equipment being removed must be protected in a manner that it is not damaged by negligence or unapproved demo methods. If a bidder chooses to use the existing wiring, please provide in your bid testing of the wiring to make sure it supports the new equipment.
