NIGP 92961: Motor Rewinding and Repairing, Electric

NIGP 92961 Motor Rewinding and Repairing, Electric is an Item code under which state and local governments buy field repair services for electric motors serving water, wastewater, and transit infrastructure. Recent solicitations show work scoped as disassembly, inspection, rewinding, baking and dipping, machine work, bearing replacement, heat strip replacement, reassembly, testing, and painting of motors up to 100 horsepower, including submersible pump motors for lift stations and treatment facility equipment. Issuing bodies include county utilities (Volusia County, Florida), municipal water and wastewater systems (City of Oviedo, City of Temple), and state correctional facility maintenance (Illinois Department of Corrections). Contracts emphasize 24-hour emergency response capability, fixed hourly labor rates plus markup over parts cost, 15-month warranties minimum, and preference for vendors maintaining shop locations within one hour of the customer facility to support critical repairs. Award evaluation typically weights lowest cost from a completed pricing template alongside emergency response timelines, past performance references, technical compliance, and financial stability.
