Weber State University is seeking a sole‑source contractor to repair nine Steinway grand pianos located in the Val A. Browning Center. The work must be performed by the university‑approved Steinway‑approved technicians (Russell Sorensen and Dennis Hirst) and funded with privately donated money that mandates use of those technicians. The contract value is estimated between $41,000 and $50,000 and the repairs must be completed by June 30 2027, with the bulk of the effort expected in summer 2026. No competitive bidding is allowed unless a challenger submits a valid protest by the April 24 deadline. • Repair scope covers dismantling, part replacement (hammers, felts, dampers, tuning pins, keys, piano wire, etc.) and re‑assembly of each piano to full functional standards. • Nine specific Steinway models (B, A, D) are listed with serial numbers; each piano is a separate line item for invoicing. • Funding is restricted to “Steinway‑approved” technicians, limiting competition and making the contract effectively a sole‑source award.
