Addendum #1 for Street Lighting Maintenance and Repair Contract

This is an addendum issued by the Jefferson Parish Department of Purchasing for a sealed bid solicitation managed by the Jefferson Parish Department of Engineering. The document pertains to a two-year contract for street lighting maintenance and repair services covering existing and new street light installations on major roadways throughout Jefferson Parish, Louisiana. A non-mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for September 18, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. at the West Bank Purchasing Department, 200 Derbigny Street, Suite 4400, Gretna, LA 70053. Sealed bids are due electronically by 2:00 p.m. on October 6, 2026, through the Jefferson Parish E-Procurement site at www.jeffparish.gov/supplier, with public bid opening occurring at 2:30 p.m. the same day at the West Bank Purchasing Department. Addendum #1 adds a question to the original bid event and bidders must acknowledge receipt of this addendum by indicating its number on the bid form; failure to do so will result in bid rejection.

A surety bid bond equal to 5% of the total bid amount, or as specified in the bid documents, is required and must be submitted electronically through the designated online clearinghouse bond management system with the electronic bond number included in the bid submission. Jefferson Parish actively encourages participation from small businesses, minority-owned businesses, women-owned business enterprises, and veteran-owned businesses, though no binding set-aside or preference is noted. The specific scope of work, service levels, response-time requirements, and performance standards are available through the Jefferson Parish Purchasing Department webpage at https://www.jeffparish.gov/464/Purchasing via the LaPAC Tab. Specifications and bid submission are available at no charge through the online portal. Jefferson Parish reserves the right to reject all bids or individual bids for just cause.
