The County reports completion of the modernization identified as Package ID 1 in the May 2, 2023, proposal included in the signed May 2023 Board packet. The package describes a 3,500-lb, 125-fpm, four-landing elevator. Use this prior scope as existing-equipment information, subject to field verification; it is not authorization to repeat the modernization.
Provide a new recessed car operating station to reduce kitchen-cart contact with buttons and accidental activation. Preserve accessible reach, clearances, legibility, service access and required functions. Flush dome buttons alone do not satisfy the recess requirement. Coordinate panel position and recess with the County's carts and the new cab construction.
Submit dimensioned shop drawings showing the cab-wall face, panel recess depth, button, and trim projections, mounting heights, cart contact envelope, swingout access and mounting of all devices. Obtain County approval before fabrication. County review does not relieve the contractor of design or code-compliance responsibility.
BASE BID PRICING REQUIREMENT: Include the full cost to furnish and install a NEW RECESSED CAR OPERATING STATION, including its new enclosure/panel, flush dome buttons, mounting, wiring and integration. Also include the new car position indicator, Rath phone and car traveling lantern specified in Section 4. Price the new recessed station separately on the County Bid Form. The new recessed station is required under both the base bid and DA-1; reuse of the existing station enclosure/panel is not permitted. Maintain existing two-way visual communication capability and all required emergency functions. Attachment A must define communication equipment and interfaces before release so all bidders price the same base scope. Price new Cab and Roller guides.
Deduct Alternate DA-1: offer a firm net credit to reuse compatible existing phone, display/position indicator, visual communication equipment, lantern, or other identified devices within the new recessed-panel/cab arrangement. Reuse is not assumed feasible. List the exact devices, models, condition, and compatibility evidence; identify anything remaining new. Equipment already required to remain in the base scope generates no credit.
Include removal, protection, mounting/adapters, reconnection, programming, integration, testing, and inspection in the alternate price. Preserve all required functions and verify emergency communications after installation. Resolve material compatibility questions before the bid deadline. If reuse is not feasible, mark DA-1 not feasible and explain; the complete base bid remains required.
Accepted reuse does not waive workmanship or integration obligations. The one-year workmanship warranty applies to removal, reinstallation, and integration of reused devices; identify any separate warranty offered on existing hardware. Protect retained equipment and correct contractor-caused damage at no additional cost.
