Bidders must submit comprehensive proposals that include not only hardware replacement but also associated software, setup, and training components. The bid documents will be available electronically at www.engserviceplans.com, with bids being accepted until December 5, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. local time. Proposals will be publicly opened and read aloud at the Engineering Service office located at 115 Aerosmith Drive, Richland, MS 39218. Potential bidders can examine bidding documents at the Issuing Office during business hours (Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.) and must pay a non-refundable deposit for printed copies. The procurement is formally advertised with publication dates of October 29, 2025, and November 5, 2025.

While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed in the provided documentation, the procurement appears to be a standard competitive bidding process open to qualified contractors capable of executing a comprehensive water meter infrastructure upgrade. The project is being managed by Donald Green, P.E., representing the Cleary Water Sewer and Fire District. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are mentioned in the documentation. The procurement requires bidders to have technical capabilities in water meter systems, AMI technology implementation, software integration, and professional training services. Although a specific budget range is not disclosed, the scope of work suggests a significant municipal infrastructure investment involving complete meter system replacement and technological upgrade. Potential bidders should carefully review all documentation on the designated website, as the Owner and Engineer will only recognize documents obtained through www.engserviceplans.com, and will not be responsible for information sourced elsewhere.
