Description:
|
Temple University (“Temple”) is seeking qualified contractors to bid on work for General Construction Package No. 1, Elevator Modernization and Upgrades, for Temple’s Terra Hall Repairs and Renovations project (“Project”) to be constructed at Temple’s Center City Campus (“TUCC”), Philadelphia, PA.
This Project involves the renovation of Terra Hall, formerly of the University of the Arts, consisting of approximately 274,000 gross square feet. The primary purpose of this Project is to address deficiencies in the building's infrastructure and provide upgrades as needed while facilitating the relocation of TUCC into the existing Terra Hall, while also determining additional uses for the building in the spaces not occupied by TUCC, if any are identified. This initiative will enhance the building's functionality, modernize critical systems, and create a seamless transition to support TUCC's academic and operational needs within a more efficient and improved facility.
This package, P1 - General Construction Package No. 1, Elevator Modernization and Upgrades, includes the full modernization of six elevators at Terra Hall. This involves upgrading elevator conveying systems, controls, safety features, and interiors to meet current standards and accessibility codes. Most elevators will use modern dispatch technology, while one will operate in standard mode. The bidder, if any, awarded this P-1 General Construction Package No. 1, Elevator Modernization and Upgrades (the “Elevator Modernization and Upgrades Prime Contractor”), shall serve as, and have the duties of, the General Prime Contractor (as defined in Construction Agreement (Multi-Prime)) until such time as Owner notifies the Elevator Modernization and Upgrades Prime Contractor in writing that another Prime Contractor (as defined in Construction Agreement (Multi-Prime)) has been assigned the duties of General Prime Contractor. The P-3 General Construction Package No. 3 is currently expected to be issued for bid in March of 2026. The bidder selected for that package, if any, is expected to assume the duties of the General Prime Contractor and is currently expected to mobilize in late May of 2026.
This Project will be subject to a Delegation Agreement between Temple, the Pennsylvania Department of General Services and the Governor’s Office of the Budget. This Project will be a multi-prime project delivered pursuant to a multi-prime contract delivery structure. The Prime Contractors will include, at a minimum: Elevator Modernization and Upgrades; Roof, Façade and Window Caulking; General Construction, Mechanical-HVAC, Electrical, and Plumbing and Fire Protection, and each other contractor engaged directly by Temple to perform construction or supply machinery, materials, equipment or labor for construction of the Project and which are identified by Temple as being a Prime Contractor for the Project. The Mechanical-HVAC, Electrical, and Plumbing and Fire Protection Construction Packages are currently expected to be issued for bid in the late Spring of 2026.
