1601-25-R-IFBD-00010

The Mississippi state government is seeking proposals for a comprehensive diesel fuel system repair project, identified by solicitation number 1601-25-R-IFBD-00010. The procurement focuses on critical modifications and upgrades to an existing fuel system, primarily involving two fuel tanks (8,000 and 10,000 gallons). Key deliverables include replacing DC voltage solenoids with AC voltage versions, removing unused solenoids, troubleshooting fuel pumps and polishers, and installing new pump starters with Hand/Off/Auto functionality. The project requires replacing the current fuel monitoring system with an EVO 200 system, running new power and communication conduits, and programming the new fuel management system to interface with the Metasys Building Automation System (BAS). Proposals must be submitted by Thursday, February 27, 2025, at 3:00 p.m. Central Time, with complete solicitation documents available on the Mississippi Information Technology Services (ITS) procurement website. Potential bidders will need to demonstrate technical expertise in fuel system modifications, electrical system integration, and industrial control system programming.

While no specific set-aside designations or disadvantaged enterprise requirements are explicitly mentioned in the provided documentation, the project involves complex technical work requiring specialized skills in fuel system engineering and automation. The scope indicates direct coordination will be required with Johnson Controls Inc. (JCI) for installation and programming of the solenoid system, suggesting potential subcontractor or partnership opportunities. The project appears to be situated in a data center facility, with specific technical requirements such as mounting the new fuel monitoring system in the Switchboard C room and maintaining a minimum 6-inch clearance for new diesel fuel piping. Although no precise budget or award value is specified in the available documents, the technical complexity and infrastructure modifications suggest a significant capital investment. Potential bidders should be prepared to demonstrate comprehensive capabilities in diesel fuel system retrofitting, electrical engineering, and building management system integration.
