24-038 cable relocation

The state and local contracting opportunity is a Request for Proposals (RFP) issued by the Houston County School District (HCSD) in Georgia for cable relocation services. The objective is to prepare classrooms for future Power over Ethernet (POE) powered devices by relocating an estimated 1,500 existing data drops from the walls to the ceiling across 27 school locations. The selected vendor will be required to provide network cabling labor to disconnect and relocate the data drops, using new materials that adhere to industry standards. Mandatory requirements include uniformed/identifiable vendor personnel, testing and labeling of new drops, and coordination with HCSD on project activities. Proposals are due on March 15, 2024 by 2:00 PM Eastern Time, and the initial one-year contract term may be automatically renewed for up to 2 additional years. Vendor selection will be based on a combination of technical and financial scores, with the highest scoring vendor being awarded the contract.

The RFP does not indicate any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. There are no listed incumbent vendors or current contractors, and the RFP does not specify any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The RFP provides a financial proposal form for vendors to submit their quotes, with the unit cost ranging from $59.36 to $641.23 per data drop relocation, but does not provide an overall budget range or award value.
