Main Terminal Improvement Program Emergency Power

The Main Terminal Improvement Program – Emergency Power project seeks to equip the Main Terminal, concourses, and parking garage with emergency power systems compliant with NEC 700, 701, and 702 requirements, ensuring uninterrupted critical operations in a 24/7/365 airport environment. The contract, issued by the Port of Seattle’s Aviation Project Management Group, has an estimated value of $3,348,000 and will be executed under a two-year term with the possibility of extension at the Port’s sole discretion. Work will be authorized through Service Directives using either firm fixed price or time and expense billing structures, with strict limitations on subconsultant markups—four percent for first-tier and zero percent for second-tier—and no markups allowed on travel, materials, or supplies except for lab services. Billing is monthly with Net 30 payment terms, and consultants must report subconsultant payments electronically via the Port’s Contractor Database System, ensuring transparency in diversity contracting efforts. Proposals must be submitted via email by August 6, 2026, at 12:00 PM PT, with strict formatting requirements including a searchable PDF proposal body limited to eight pages, separate attachments for the Diversity in Contracting Inclusion Plan, Company Information, Resumes, and Evidence of Agreement, and no compressed file attachments permitted. Evaluation prioritizes specialized experience and technical competence of key personnel alongside interview performance, with proposals rated as Outstanding, Good, Acceptable, Marginal, or Unacceptable based on approach, understanding, and risk assessment. Compliance with federal, state, and local laws including Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, the Trafficking Victims Protection Act, and Washington State’s Public Disclosure Act is mandatory, along with adherence to non-discrimination and affirmative action obligations that flow down to all subcontractors. Contractors must provide proof of workers' compensation and other specialized insurance coverage, indemnify the Port against negligence-related losses, and maintain all records on generally accepted accounting principles for audit purposes for at least three years post-completion. All deliverables must meet Port-specific standards, including participation in the 30% Design Review and submission of QA/QC checklists, a Design Quality Management Plan, and performance reports, with time being of the essence in all project phases.
