Stevensville Elementary School District is soliciting sealed bids for construction of site work including grading and drainage structures, asphalt pavement, concrete walkways, fencing, and associated work. Beginning at noon on May 11, 2011 bid packets may be obtained from Scott Bruner at Swank Enterprises by phone: 406-752-5411; E-mail: scott@swankenterprises.com; or in person at 750 West Reserve Drive, Kalispell, MT 59901.

This project utilizes the Construction Manager at Risk method, and Swank Enterprises of Kalispell has previously been selected as the Construction Manager. This project is offered with two bidding options. 1) Bidders who can provide the required bid and performance securities may bid directly to the School District. 2) Bidders who elect not to provide the required security documents may bid to Swank Enterprises as a subcontractor. Contact Swank Enterprises as described above for further information. All subcontracts, regardless of bidding method, will be performed under Swank Enterprises as the Construction Manager at Risk.
A mandatory pre-bid walk-through has been scheduled for June 2nd 2011 at the project site at 300 Park Avenue in Stevensville. Bids will not be accepted from bidders who do not attend this meeting and sign the attendance sheet.
To be considered, sealed bids must be physically received no later than 1:00 PM local time on June 9, 2011 at the Stevensville School District at 300 Park Avenue, Stevensville, MT. No faxed or electronic bids will be accepted.
