Construction Svs to Modernize ( 2 ) Hydraulic Passenger Elevators

2026-11-03

The HCDA is seeking General Contracting services to conduct construction work necessary to improve a concrete curtainwall and modernize two ( 2 ) hydraulic passenger elevators at the Kauhale Kakaako Parking Garage located at 860 Halekauwila Street , Honolulu , Hawaii . The concrete curtainwall encloses the passenger elevator shaft and shows evidence of water intrusion at various points . The curtainwall includes large decorative glass window panels in the hoistway to match the glass back elevator cabs . The HCDA is seeking a Contractor to remove the existing glass window panels in the hoistway and infill the opening with a new framed wall to waterproof and seal the hoistway against further water intrusion . The two ( 2 ) elevators were permitted and installed in 1993 and are original Otis Elevator equipment . These were distinct elevators with glass hoistways and glass back cabs , which presents unique challenges . The HCDA is seeking a Contractor to modernize the elevators and cabs with standard equipment that does not include any glass windows . The passenger elevators are heavily used by residents , monthly , and daily parkers at the Kauhale Kakaako Parking Garage . Overall , the elevators are running average with a few operational problems with doors and overall floor to floor operation . However , due to the age of the elevators , many of the components are becoming increasingly difficult to maintain and procure for repair work . Additional information on the background and overall condition of the elevators can be found under the Elevator Audit & Assessment Report provided by Innovative Elevator Consulting dated January 17 , 2023 attached herein to this IFB as Exhibit B
