AI Contract Overview
The State of Rhode Island, through RIDOT, is soliciting bids for the furnishing and installation of a complete standby power system at the Allens Ave Facility under solicitation RFQ27006835, with a response deadline of August 13, 2026. The scope of work requires a comprehensive diesel-only generator system with a minimum capacity of 35-40kVA, including an automatic transfer switch, an exterior-rated quick-connect cam-lock system, and a fully integrated fuel system encompassing all tanks, piping, containment, and safety components. An electrical service evaluation of the existing 600 amp, three-phase, 120/208-volt system is mandatory, with upgrades to be installed as needed, supported by documented load calculations. Civil work includes the construction of a stabilized equipment pad and protective bollards, while the emergency shutoff disconnect must be physically located on high ground adjacent to Allens Avenue. The contractor is responsible for securing all permits, coordinating inspections, and performing simulated load testing to ensure the system is fully operational upon delivery, with basic operational training provided to facility personnel. The contract is structured as a lump-sum fixed fee arrangement with an anticipated budget not to exceed $150,000, requiring an itemized proposal breakdown for all components including electrical assessment, generator installation, fuel system, site work, and permitting. A minimum three-year warranty covers all defects in materials, equipment, and workmanship, with warranty service—including labor, travel, replacement parts, and emergency calls—provided at no additional cost to the state unless damage results from misuse or beyond the contractor’s control. During the warranty period, the contractor must implement all manufacturer-recommended preventative maintenance, inspections, and testing, submitting a detailed maintenance schedule and service intervals upon project completion. Pre-bid site reviews are scheduled within 7 to 10 days of posting, and all work must comply with applicable electrical and fuel codes. There are no specified set-asides, bonding requirements, or cybersecurity or small business provisions outlined in the solicitation.
