EXHIBIT_B_MATERIAL_CUT_SHEETS.zip is a supplementary document for the Florida Keys Electric Cooperative Association, Inc. (FKEC) infrastructure project bid. The project involves installing a new 7.3-mile, 25 kilovolt three-phase overhead distribution feeder (G Feeder) from Tavernier to Key Largo substations, replacing the existing T Feeder. The scope includes setting 36 new distribution poles, installing 2 capacitor banks and 3 reclosers, and transferring existing loads primarily on existing 138kV transmission line poles. The bid is due on May 23, 2025, with an anticipated award date of June 2, 2025, and a project completion date of June 19, 2026. The contract will be awarded based on a comprehensive scoring system evaluating firm qualifications (20 points), past performance (20 points), cost proposal (50 points), and project schedule (10 points).

The procurement will be executed as a firm fixed-price agreement, with FKEC reserving the right to select a bidder based on the most comprehensive proposal rather than solely on price. Potential vendors include Gresco, Irby, and manufacturers like Ermco, Hubbell, McWane, and Hughes Brothers. Insurance requirements are extensive, mandating professional liability, commercial general liability, and commercial automobile liability coverage with limits ranging from $1,000,000 to $5,000,000 per occurrence. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are mentioned, the bid is open to qualified electrical infrastructure contractors with demonstrated expertise in overhead transmission line installation, pole setting, and electrical distribution system construction. The project represents a significant capital investment in electrical infrastructure for the Florida Keys region, focusing on upgrading and expanding the electrical distribution network.
