Professional services for the demolition of commercial and/or residential structures and, subsequently, to remove, transport, and dispose of associated debris which may include asbestos-containing materials are required on an as-needed basis for all City Departments. The Code Compliance Department's Environmental Management Division manages these contract to ensure regulations related to any environmental hazards are followed. The contract commonly serves to provide on-call services to abate substandard structures or to support redevelopment. To ensure the greatest degree of cost savings to the City and to allow for effective service, individual contracts will be executed with up to four pre-qualified contractors. This allows for up to four pre-qualified contactors to be eligible to submit pre-qualified costs as project needs arise. As demolition projects arise, each firm must submit a cost proposal for the identified project scope. The contractor which provides the lowest cost estimate is issued a task order to complete the project. A Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for the provision of structural demolition and removal, transportation, and disposal of asbestos containing materials on an annual contract basis was advertised on September 22, 2016.
