About this file

This is Addendum No. 1 to Request for Proposal RFP-153-21 issued by the Commonwealth of Kentucky Department for Facilities and Support Services, Division of Engineering and Contract Administration, in partnership with the Kentucky Department of Education. The RFP solicits design-build services for a solar energy project at the Future Farmers of America (FFA) Camp located in Hardinsburg, Kentucky. The addendum modifies the original proposal submission deadline to March 15, 2021, at 2:00 PM, with proposals to be submitted via MoveIT. The shortlist meeting has been rescheduled to the week of March 15, 2021.

The addendum clarifies two critical technical specifications for the project. First, it confirms that a ground-mounted photovoltaic (PV) system is required, rather than the roof-mounted solution referenced in the original project description. All electrical work must comply with applicable National Electrical Code (NEC) and Kentucky Building Code (KBC) standards specific to ground-mounted solar arrays. Second, the addendum addresses safety measures for the system, confirming that the solar installation will not include perimeter fencing and that the solar direct current wiring will be protected using appropriate safety precautions and conduit installation as required by code, rather than metal paneling. No information regarding pricing, contract terms, funding sources, or award timeline is provided in this addendum.
