About this file
This is a Bid Amendment No. 1 issued by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ), Contracts and Procurement Department, for Bid No. IW241584. The amendment serves to provide answers to bidder questions regarding a generator installation project. The bid opening is scheduled for February 27, 2026, at 3:00 PM. Bidders must acknowledge receipt of this amendment to ensure their bids receive consideration. The amendment addresses three critical questions submitted by bidders concerning the generator pad and foundation specifications, current conduit configuration and measurements, and potential change order allowances for pad or foundation modifications to accommodate the new generator installation.
In response to bidder inquiries, TDCJ provided specific information about the existing generator pad, which is configured in an "L" shape with the current generator occupying dimensions of 141 inches by 144 inches, with attached pictures provided for reference. The department also furnished pictures and measurements of the existing conduit serving the current generator to assist bidders in determining compatibility with the new generator's access points. However, TDCJ explicitly stated that change orders for pad or foundation work will not be permitted, meaning bidders must design their generator installations to work within the existing infrastructure parameters without additional contract modifications for structural adjustments.

No.
Question
Answer
1 Regarding the generator pad/ foundation. 1.5 states Where applicable, concrete pad shall be extended if needed depending on size of new generator. Are current pad dimension able to be provided? Along with pictures?
The pad itself is in an “L” configuration, with the area that the current generator occupies being 141”x144”. See attached pictures.
2 Can pictures and measurements of the current conduit going to the generator be provided. I am looking to see if the conduit is coming from underground. I want to make sure that the conduit will line up with the new generator access points.
See attached pictures.
3 If the above information is not able to be provided would TDCJ allow for a change order for pad/foundation work to match new generator.
Change order is not allowed.
