The City of Manitou Springs is accepting information for ADA improvements to Wichita Parking lot public restrooms. Enacted in 1990, the Americans with Disabilities Act makes it illegal to discriminate against people with disabilities. As part of the ADA, guidelines were established to ensure equal access to public facilities and services to people with disabilities. The ADA sets out design and engineering standards to make public restrooms and other facilities accessible to disabled people. The ADA Accessibility Guidelines set accessibility standards for restrooms in public facilities such as hotels, theaters, schools, and recreation centers. The United States Access Board creates the guidelines, which set out specific requirements for elements such as door width, handrail height and toilet design. Public facilities are required to comply with these guidelines.
The City of Manitou Springs is soliciting information from potential sources for the project identified in this RFI. Responses to this RFI are considered non-binding and are only used to gather information to be used for budgetary and specification preparation purposes. It will also be used to determine the number of companies that exists in the industry for a possible future competitive procurement.
It is not the intent of the City to award a contract as a result of this RFI. However, in the event that the responses indicate little or no interest, the City reserves the right to pursue a competitive negotiation process or to consider an unsolicited proposal without issuing a formal RFP if it is in the best interest of the City. If this RFI determines that there are sufficient interested and qualified vendors/contractors and favorable monetary estimates, the City may issue a formal RFP (Request for Proposal) for these services. If an RFP is issued then all firms that responded to this RFI will be added to our source list and will be formally invited to propose a bid.
