Description:
York is inviting qualified Proponents to supply and install interior signs following the pre-established York University Interior Signage Standards Manual.
Even though a standard exists for the interior signage, special conditions may arise. These conditions and situations shall be handled individually and shall use the current standards as a guideline. Shall a new sign type be introduced, the Selected Proponent will be required to develop detailed manufacturing shop drawings and installation specifications based on the preliminary design drawings provided by York.
In addition, from time to time the Selected Proponent will be required to manufacture and install custom signage including but not limited to metal and acrylic letters and plaques; vinyl graphics for applications on brick or concrete interior walls, glazing and other surfaces; as well as free standing award and/or donor recognition signage or similar. The Selected Proponent’s ability, capacity to design and fabricate custom illuminated indoor signs and other creative pieces will be an asset. The extent of this requirement is minimal at this stage with anticipated growth as new buildings are constructed and become operational.
York intends to select and establish one (1) Proponent as the Vendor of Record (“VOR”) for the term indicated in the RFP document.
York will only consider Proposal submissions received from Proponents who have registered with MERX (www.MERX.com) for this competitive bid. Proposal submissions from Proponents who have not registered and obtained this Bid Document directly from MERX will be disqualified.
