Air Compressor

The South Dakota Army National Guard is seeking bids for the delivery and installation of a 40HP air compressor at their Mitchell, SD facility through an Invitation for Bid (IFB) numbered 23IFB8275. The procurement specifically requires the removal of the current air compressor and installation of a new Ingersoll Rand SSR-EP-40SE or equivalent unit, with all associated disposal and recycling of existing materials. The new compressor must meet precise technical specifications, including 460V, 3-phase electrical requirements, and specific operating and discharge pressure parameters. Contractors must provide a comprehensive bid that includes all parts, equipment, labor, and potential subcontractor costs necessary for complete installation. The bid is due by January 24, 2023, with site visits available upon request to assess the installation location. The work must be completed in full compliance with applicable South Dakota building codes and standards, and while a specific brand is mentioned, equivalent models are acceptable.

The procurement appears to be open to all qualified vendors without specific set-aside designations or restrictions on organizational type. No incumbent vendor information is provided in the available documentation. The procurement is located within Day County (FIPS Code 46037) and follows the South Dakota Office of Procurement Management's vendor guidelines. While a specific budget range is not explicitly stated, the procurement involves a specialized industrial equipment installation that likely requires significant technical expertise and capital investment. Potential bidders should carefully review the detailed specifications in the IFB document and be prepared to demonstrate capability in industrial air compressor installation, electrical systems integration, and compliance with state procurement regulations. Vendors interested in participating should ensure they are registered with the state and familiar with the vendor manual's requirements for bidding, contract formation, and administrative compliance.
