The University of Akron may provide an electronic version of the specifications/RFP as a convenience to interested companies. Electronic copies are made from a master, print copy of an original document (Original)resident in the Department of Purchasing of the university. Availability and distribution of electronic copies is conditioned on bidder's acknowledging the fact that the Original shall be the controlling document in the event of any inconsistencies, irregularities, changes or alterations that may occur as a result of electronic transmission, copying or other form or electronic editing. Any prospective bidder using any electronic copy of this RFP accepts the obligation and duty to compare the electronic copy with the Original and verify accuracy and consistency of the documents. In the event of any inconsistency or variation in any terms, phrases or clauses whatsoever, bidders using electronic copies understand that the Original shall prevail and be the controlling document used to govern and resolve any such inconsistency or variation. Each vendor is required to submit with their proposal an "ORIGINAL SPECIFICATIONS" affidavit.

The University encourages bidders to provide an electronic copy of their bid/proposal; however any such electronic copy must be accompanied
by a hard copy of the bid/proposal. University will only accept the hard copy version as the official bid/proposal, the electronic copy being deemed as submitted for informational purposes only.

All files listed below are also available in print form and/or on diskette upon request.

The University charges a deposit for most construction projects.  In addition to the deposit a completed Contractor Deposit Form is required before plans can be obtained.  The Contractor Deposit Form is located here for your convenience.

The posted Bid Tabs reflect bids as opened and read. No selection of apparent low, responsive and responsible bidders have been made. The Bid Tab is furnished for information only.
