AI Contract Overview

Nashville Electric Service is soliciting bids for 60-foot steel poles with a minimum capacity of 0243 ft-kips at ground level, equivalent to Class H3. The poles must be hot dipped galvanized according to ASTM A123 and adhere to the latest NES specification LSK-1212 for drilling and details. Each pole must be limited to a maximum of two sections and include 1 inch jacking nuts and bolts for both the top and bottom halves. Bidders must quote from a specific list of approved manufacturers, including Valmont, Rohn, and Sabre Co, as alternate brands are not permitted. Delivery terms are strict, with shipments accepted only Tuesday through Friday and prohibited on Mondays. Logistics requirements mandate that both sections of a two-piece pole arrive on the same truck and that each layer of poles on a trailer be individually strapped. Mixed loads of multiple pole sizes are prohibited without prior approval from Procurement, Warehouse, and Operations, which would require a pre-approved loading diagram. Bidders must submit their proposals via the Vendor Web Portal by November 5, 2026, specifying their earliest delivery in calendar days and underlining the quoted brand. Quoted prices must remain valid until November 18, 2026, and delivery timelines may be a factor in the award decision.
