SIte-Visit-Attendance-Meeting-Power-Substation-Contract-5-6-11-26.pdf

This is a site visit attendance sheet for the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA) related to the Traction Power Substation Rehabilitation Program – Contract 5, covering the Broad, Loudon, Park, and Castor substations. The attendance sheet documents participants who attended mandatory site visits held on November 26, 2024, which were required for firms interested in submitting qualifications under the two-step procurement process. The site visits covered inspection of the four traction power substations (Loudon, Park, Broad, and Castor) that are slated for rehabilitation work including replacement of electrical equipment, structural upgrades, HVAC improvements, fire suppression systems, SCADA integration, and environmental remediation. The RFQ proposals are due July 15, 2026 at 11:00 AM, with a pre-qualification meeting scheduled for June 10, 2026 via Microsoft Teams and additional mandatory site visits on June 11-12, 2026.

The attendance sheet serves as documentation of contractor participation in the early site visit phase of this federally funded construction procurement. The project requires completion of final design from 50% specifications and construction of comprehensive substation upgrades over a 2,035 calendar day contract period. SEPTA is encouraging disadvantaged business enterprise (DBE) participation without establishing a specific goal percentage, and the contractor must perform at least 20% of work with its own forces. Selected firms from Step One qualification will receive Step Two sealed-bid documents for pricing submission, with evaluation criteria prioritizing team qualifications and project management, experience, schedule understanding, project approach, and financial/project surety capabilities.
