Addendum #1 for RFP No. 2025-02 was issued by Suwannee Valley Electric Cooperative (SVEC), seeking disaster power restoration services for counties in Florida. The RFP requests comprehensive emergency power line repair and restoration services, covering damage assessment, facility restoration, and site cleanup across distribution and transmission circuits. Proposals are due on May 2, 2025, at 4:00 PM Eastern, with a required bid bond of $12,500. The contract will be structured as a time and materials agreement, with SVEC issuing task orders through individual Task Releases, and the contract term and renewal periods to be negotiated between SVEC and the selected respondent(s).
The fee structure will be based on hourly labor and equipment rates submitted by the successful proposer(s), with a not-to-exceed amount and no cost-plus-percentage-of-cost arrangement. The contract anticipates potential FEMA funding, requiring strict compliance with federal regulations. Performance and payment bonds may be required at 100% of the contract's not-to-exceed amount. Contractors can obtain RFP documents through VendorLink.com or by contacting Erin Skeen at erins@svec-coop.com. The cooperative serves 4,000 miles of electric distribution lines across over 18,500 consumer-members in Columbia, Hamilton, Lafayette, and Suwannee counties, seeking contractors with extensive disaster power restoration experience.
