The Mississippi Department of Information Technology Services (ITS) is seeking proposals for RFx 3160007037, a contract opportunity focused on diesel fuel system upgrades across multiple locations in Hinds County. The procurement involves comprehensive modifications to fuel management infrastructure, including replacing return line solenoids on 8,000 and 10,000-gallon tanks, upgrading voltage systems, removing unused solenoid components, and troubleshooting fuel pump systems. Key deliverables include installing new starters with Hand/OFF/Auto functionality for fuel pumps, replacing the current fuel monitor system with an EVO 200 system, and installing new diesel fuel piping for Generator C. Technical requirements mandate specific installation parameters, such as maintaining a 6-inch clearance for new pipe runs and integrating with existing building automation systems for high-level alarm monitoring. The proposal is due on Tuesday, January 21, 2025, at 3:00 p.m. Central Time, with submissions accepted via email to Lori Adams at lori.adams@its.ms.gov or hand-delivered to the MS Department of Information Technology Services at 3771 Eastwood Dr., Jackson, MS.

While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed in the provided documentation, the project requires technical expertise in diesel fuel system upgrades, electrical systems integration, and building automation system programming. The scope indicates required coordination with Johnson Controls (JCI) for installation and programming, suggesting potential subcontractor or specialized technical partner involvement. Vendors will need demonstrated capabilities in electrical systems, fuel management technologies, and building infrastructure modifications. The project spans multiple locations including the Data Center generator room and C-Building, indicating a complex multi-site implementation. Although no specific budget range is provided, the technical complexity and breadth of required modifications suggest a substantial infrastructure investment. Potential respondents should have proven experience with generator fuel systems, electrical upgrades, and integration of monitoring technologies across complex institutional environments.
