Background

This project is to provide a large capacity elevator for the Northport offices of Dane County. The elevator is currently in-place but requires significant repairs to become code compliant and operations. The existing traction elevator is non-operational making this upgrade a priority for Dane County operations. Primary requirements for this project are spelled out within Specification Section 14 21 20 - Northport Office Building Conveying System. Remaining specifications sections are provided to supplement this work.

Key considerations for vendors include being responsbile for ALL aspects of this project. While an elevator contractor may bid as the Prime contractor, they will also be responsible for ensuring a complete and usable traction elevator at the conclusion of the project by securing the necessary subcontractors to complete the work. The County encourages all bidders to review the site conditions carefully and propose solutions that align with the project goals, within the scope and specifications provided.
