KALA Rehabilitate Electrical System

The National Park Service intends to award a design-build contract to rehabilitate the unsafe and failing electrical system at Kalaupapa National Historical Park in Hawaii. Work will include upgrading the distribution system to current safety standards, improving reliability, performing deferred maintenance, and removing risks to public and employee safety. Specifically, the remote water treatment facility will be converted from diesel generators to grid-connected electricity, overhead power lines will be rerouted along roads to remove them from cultural sites, and aging distribution infrastructure throughout the settlement will be demolished and replaced. Interested large and small businesses are requested to submit information on their qualifications, bonding capacity, and experience with similar projects by December 1, 2021.

There is no set-aside designation for this opportunity. Relevant NAICS codes include 2381 and 238210, and PSC codes include R499 and R499. The project scope involves work throughout 2022-2024. Specific tasks include converting the remote facility to grid power, rerouting over 1 mile of overhead lines, and replacing distribution lines, transformers, and other infrastructure for the entire settlement.
