Tacoma Public Utilities is soliciting bids for a multi-year supply contract to provide LED luminaires and accessories for the Tacoma Power off-street lighting program. The contract, estimated at 500,000 dollars, focuses on the supply of 70W flat lens LED luminaires with eyes and corresponding LED luminaire shields. The agreement is structured for an initial three-year term with the possibility of two one-year extensions. To be considered responsive, vendors must utilize manufacturers with at least five years of experience in supplying similar materials and demonstrate a successful track record of completing contracts of similar scope and size. Award decisions will be based on the best interests of the City, evaluating factors such as compliance with specifications, pricing, delivery timelines, warranty terms, and the bidder's technical qualifications. All equipment must meet ANSI C136.31-2010 vibration standards for Level 2 Bridge/Overpass. Deliveries are to be made F.O.B. to the Tacoma Power South Service Center or alternate locations within a 35-mile radius of the warehouse between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. on business days. Final acceptance is contingent upon inspection by the Engineer or warehouse personnel, after which 100 percent payment is issued via EFT/ACH or check. Vendors must provide a manufacturer's internal quality assurance policy and adhere to strict packaging and labeling requirements, including the use of ICC regulations and specific pallet and package identifiers.
