What this bid is

Dane County is asking for bids to replace six existing roof-mounted exhaust fans at the Consolidated Food Service facility in Verona, Wisconsin, under a lump sum contract. The aim is to replace aging exhaust equipment and keep the kitchen exhaust systems running properly. The facility stays open during the work, so the contractor must coordinate shutdowns, access, staging and sequencing with the county. The notice asks for demonstrated experience with commercial HVAC and exhaust systems, rooftop equipment replacement and work in occupied facilities. Prevailing wage rules apply, and the county says the work must follow its specifications, ordinances and local permits.

A pre-bid meeting is set for 17 November 2026 at 10:00 AM CST at 1000 E Verona Ave, Verona WI 53593, by the flag pole and picnic table. The notice calls this non-mandatory in one place, while BusyBids flags it as mandatory, so check the solicitation document. Questions are due 24 November 2026 at 5:00 PM CST, and bids are due 9 December 2026 at 2:00 PM CST.

Submit electronically through the county's OpenGov portal at https://procurement.opengov.com/portal/countyofdane/projects/317100, which requires a free vendor account. Contact Daniel Martinez, Project Manager, at martinez.daniel@danecounty.gov or (608) 225-5719. The county decides who is selected.
