SDI Architects led a pre-bid conference for the Garfield County Courthouse Stair Replacement on Jan. 29, 2026. Project representatives reviewed specifications, the bid timetable and contract requirements for contractors planning to bid on the work.
Project staff said the bid opening is scheduled for Feb. 4, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. MST at the Garfield County Commissioners' Office. The documents specify a substantial completion date of June 30, 2026 and a one‑year warranty period beginning on substantial completion. The instructions to bidders and supplementary conditions require bid security and bonding, insurance, contractor‑paid builder's risk insurance, and that the contractor obtain any required permits. The supplementary conditions also state liquidated damages of $100 per day.
The pre-bid packet and meeting record note project‑specific procurement rules: prevailing wage rates apply, a 1% state gross receipts tax is required, testing timing and responsibility are identified in Division 03 and the supplementary conditions, and legally acceptable disposal of demolition and excavated materials is the contractor's responsibility. Bidders were instructed to submit requests for clarification to the architect by Jan. 30, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. MST; verbal instructions are not binding unless issued by written addendum.
Attendance listed SDI staff (Brandon Janshen and Mark Toennis), county commissioners (Kelly Witt and Carla McWilliams), Clerk Charlie Saylor and contractor representatives who joined by phone or Teams. The meeting packet with the pre-bid agenda and attendance roster is part of the public record.
