The solicitation (RFQ-0000002492) seeks a supplier to remove and install 128 Enersys Batteries (model 12XE1110F-FR2) at the Fred C. Frey Computing Services Building in Baton Rouge. The bid is due on May 6, 2025, at 11:00 AM CT, with work to be completed on a Saturday following the award. All deliveries must be made no later than June 30, 2025, to ensure current fiscal year funding availability.

The procurement will be awarded on an "all or none" basis to the lowest responsible and responsive supplier. Bidders must specify the manufacturer, brand, and model number of batteries. While no specific budget range is detailed, the solicitation requires comprehensive insurance certificates with minimum coverage limits for workers' compensation, commercial general liability, and automobile liability. Payment will be processed post-completion, with invoices submitted to aptravel@lsu.edu and accompanied by service reports approved by the Facility Services Operations Manager. The university reserves the right to reject bids that do not meet delivery requirements or fail to comply with specified terms and conditions, indicating a rigorous evaluation process that prioritizes compliance and operational effectiveness.

Addendum 02

Supplier Inquiry and Response

Q1. I recently visited your facility. In the recent addendum you mentioned that the battery installation must be completed in one day. What constitutes a day? 8hrs, 10hrs, 12hrs, 16hrs.....? What time can the install begin and what time does it need to be completed?

A1. Work can begin at 6:00am and continue until the job is completed so LSU can bring the UPS online. After award, the supplier will need to tell LSU their estimated work hours for completion so LSU building managers can be notified.

Q2. Can the side door of the Frey building be used to move the batteries in and out of the building?

A2. No. All batteries must come in and out of the building on the back loading dock.
