Lewis County Backup Generator Annual Service

Lewis County is seeking proposals for a five-year contract to provide annual level one and level two servicing for all county-owned backup generators. The scope of work requires the contractor to provide all necessary labor, materials, tools, and supervision to perform two services per year, with level two service occurring annually or every 250 operating hours. Key performance requirements include a three-hour emergency response time for technicians within Lewis County and strict adherence to manufacturer recommendations, EPA regulations for waste disposal, and New York State prevailing wage laws. Services will be performed at various locations, including the Highway garage, Outdoor Services, DMV/Elections, Human Services, and the Public Safety Building. The contract award will be based on best value, prioritizing the best interest of the county over price alone, with evaluations focusing on responsiveness, reputation, and commitment to quality. Applicants must submit a detailed proposal on their own forms, including a compensation plan and several signed certifications, such as a Non-Collusion Statement and an Anti-Sexual Harassment statement. The successful bidder must operate as an independent contractor, maintaining required workers compensation, disability, and unemployment insurance, as well as automobile liability insurance with limits of $1,000,000 / $2,000,000. Payments are processed via vendor claims invoices according to county accounting practices.
