Louisiana Tech University is soliciting sealed bids for a blanket purchase order to provide inspections and preventative maintenance for building emergency generators and associated transfer switches. The initial term of performance runs from October 1, 2026, to September 30, 2027, with options for two additional one-year renewals. The scope of work includes annual and semi-annual inspections, preventative maintenance, and load bank testing across various university facilities, including the Adams Classroom, College of Business Building, and the Institute for Micromanufacturing.

To be eligible, the awarded vendor must be a licensed commercial contractor in good standing with the Louisiana State Licensing Board for Contractors, specifically holding an Electrical classification. Bidders must provide a valid Certificate of Insurance and a bid bond equal to 5% of the official bid amount for any submission exceeding 50,000 dollars.
