- **Scope:** Construct an approximately 18,000-square-foot building with two K–12 gymnasiums, storm-shelter space, and related traffic, parking, and site improvements. The elementary gym is to be fully finished; the middle/high-school gym receives technology rough-in, with specified exterior work included.
- **Products and quantities:** Gym equipment, a marquee with electronic message display, and a construction camera are included, but their quantities and models are not specified. Cisco CP-7841 VoIP phones: 8 total (3 installed and 5 spares). Meraki CW9162I-MR wireless access points with cages: 4 installed; 2 additional CW9162I-MR spares; and 2 CW9162 spares.
- **OEMs and named companies:** **Cisco** (CP-7841 phones) and **Meraki** (wireless access points) are identified by product and model. **DynaForce** and **Tarkett** are approved substitutions for athletic flooring and artificial turf, respectively, subject to specifications. **New Millennium** was mentioned in a roof-deck question, but no manufacturer is required. No specific OEM is stated for the gym equipment, marquee, or construction camera.
- **Construction and technology services:** General construction includes concrete, drywall, glazing, finishes, roofing, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, landscaping, low-voltage work, and site work. Contractor scope also includes structured cabling, AV, PA, security/access control, and data/voice networking. Price separately the future relocation of firewall, paging-headend, and video-surveillance server/headend equipment.
- **Notable requirements:** The shelter must meet ICC 500 requirements. Include potential pier casings if groundwater conditions require them; provide a PV-ready system, although solar panels and inverters are excluded. The contractor is responsible for the SWPPP, applicable TPDES filings, and City of Irving grading and erosion-control permit fees. Materials must be asbestos-free; prevailing-wage and payment/performance-bond requirements apply. Materials testing is contracted separately by the Owner.
- **Budget and timing:** Estimated project budget is $10 million. Work is expected to run from late 2026 into 2027, with substantial completion required before final completion. The schedule will be agreed with the selected contractor, and rainy days do not extend the deadline. Late substantial completion carries $2,000 per calendar day in liquidated damages.
- **Other scope clarifications:** One scoreboard is required; exterior doors are hollow-metal, fencing is 8 feet high with no gate operator, and direct-applied textured acrylic finish over ICF replaces Portland cement plaster.
