The file EXHIBIT_B_MATERIAL_CUT_SHEETS.zip is related to a bid specification from the Florida Keys Electric Cooperative Association, Inc. (FKEC) for the New G Feeder Distribution Construction Installation Project. The project involves installing 7.3 miles of a new 25 kilovolt (kV) three-phase overhead distribution 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. 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 contract will be a firm fixed-price agreement, with FKEC reserving the right to select a bidder based on the most comprehensive proposal rather than the lowest price. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are mentioned, the bidding process is open to qualified electrical infrastructure contractors. 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. Though a precise project budget is not specified, the detailed technical specifications suggest a significant capital investment in electrical distribution infrastructure for the Florida Keys region.
