AGENDA ITEM TYPE:
Pre-Procurement
RECOMMENDATION:
Informational report for discussion
BACKGROUND:
Utah’s Public Transit District Act requires all contracts valued at $250,000 or greater to be approved by the UTA Board of Trustees. This informational report on upcoming procurements allows Trustees to be informed and provide input on upcoming procurement projects. Following the bid solicitation and contract negotiation process, final contracts for these projects will come before the board for approval.
DISCUSSION:
Handrail Replacement
The Facilities Department is seeking a contractor to replace and install new handrails at seven (7) station platform locations in Salt Lake City. The current handrails are worn and need to be upgraded for State of Good repair maintenance and to meet new Americans with Disabilities Act requirements. The Contractor will remove and dispose of the old railing and install sixteen (16) new handrails. This procurement will be conducted as an RFP (Request for Proposal) where technical criteria will be evaluated and scored in addition to price. The term of this contract is to be completed in 2026. Funding for this procurement is included in the approved 2026 Facilities State of Good Repair budget. (PM- Kevin Anderson, 16791)
