Site work for a water / sewer project in Tucson, Arizona. Completed plans call for site work for a water / sewer project.

The City of Tucson, (COT), is conducting a competitive process to retain a Contractor to perform internal pipe renewals on Tucson Water's most critical water transmission mains consisting of concrete pressure pipe. Services will be used to perform Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) pipe renewal. The City may, at its sole discretion, award multiple projects under the resulting contract, or go out for competitive bids, or go out for another CMAR. CMAR will be required to provide payment and performance bond equal to 100% of the value of the negotiated value(s) of construction Pre-Bid Meeting: Dial in by Phone +1 213-293-2303,,579065975# United States, Los Angeles Find a local number Phone conference ID: 579 065 975# Questions Shall Be Directed to: Vanessa Guzman (520) 837-4375 vanessa.guzman@tucsonaz.gov The City, at its sole discretion, may award multiple projects to the selected Contractor including but not limited to: o Columbus Blvd 54in Pipeline Renewal o Valencia Rd (Martin Reservoir to 22nd St. Reservoir) o 48" C1-WSA o Other varying PCCP renewals, all monitored via AFO (48", 66", 78", 84", 96") A. Work includes furnishing all materials, designs, equipment, services, training and supervision for installation, inspection and testing of CFRP composite repairs of concrete pressure pipe in accordance with the Drawings and this Specification, Owner's site-specific requirements, and the contract issued by the Owner.

The cost saving opportunities identified by the City and any value engineering opportunities brought forth by the selected CMAR firm shall protect the project goals and maintain the most valued components. The fundamental goals of the project include: 1. Long term renewal of large diameter concrete pressure pipe using CFRP system. Full extent of scope to be determined based on inspection results. 2. Implementation of CFRP installation with minimal impact on community and within schedule parameters established. B. Provide the Installer that supplies the specified CFRP material and labor to install CFRP in concrete pressure pipe, including: 1. Preparing the internal concrete surface as required in the CFRP repair Drawings and this Specification. 2. Installing CFRP laminates in accordance with the CFRP repair Drawings and this Specification using the wet lay-up technique to the inside surface of the concrete pressure pipe. Access for all equipment, materials, and crew will be through existing manholes identified by the Owner. 3. Curing all installed CFRP in accordance with requirements in specification. C. Contractor will mobilize and demobilize all required labor, equipment, and materials to and from the work site. D. Contractor will provide all necessary equipment and personnel to complete Work in a timely manner and in accordance with applicable safety, engineering, and schedule requirements. E.

Work shall be completed in accordance with the schedule approved by the Owner. J. Construction Price: 1. Examples of areas with potential value engineering opportunities, which would satisfy the fundamental project goals, include are not limited to optimizing schedule and construction plan using available access points or suggestions for adding additional access points as needed. 2. Working with the design team and the City, the CMAR will assist in value engineering, constructability reviews, cost modeling, and other activities to be included in the preconstruction phase of the contract. The CMAR will immediately advise the City whenever the cost model indicates that the construction cost exceeds the construction budget for the project.
