Clay Co DHR/LED light Installation

The state of Alabama, specifically the Clay County Department of Human Resources (DHR), is seeking quotes for a comprehensive LED lighting installation project located at 86930 Highway 9 in Lineville. The procurement involves a one-time service to replace 710 existing fluorescent light fixtures with new 4ft LED bulbs, which requires complete removal of fluorescent ballasts and rewiring of existing light fixtures. Vendors must complete the entire installation in a single trip by February 21, 2025, with a quote submission deadline of February 4, 2025. Prospective contractors are strongly encouraged to conduct a site visit prior to submitting their quote, with Kristy Smith designated as the point of contact. Qualified vendors must maintain a current professional license at the time of award and installation, and their pricing must be fully inclusive of all associated costs, including trip charges, mileage, labor, supplies, fees, permit fees, and necessary equipment like lift trucks. The DHR will supply the fluorescent lamps, ballasts, and bulbs, which must be verified on-site before scheduling the installation.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly noted in the documentation. The procurement follows standard Alabama state purchasing guidelines, as outlined in the Quick Quote Standard Boilerplate, which requires vendors to be registered in the Alabama Buys system and submit responses electronically. Payment terms are structured as Net 30, with compensation provided in arrears after successful service completion and no pre-completion invoicing permitted. While a specific budget range was not detailed, the scope involves replacing 710 light fixtures, suggesting a moderate-scale infrastructure upgrade project. Vendors must also comply with state requirements, including tax compliance certification and E-Verify program enrollment for employees working in Alabama. All removed materials must be properly disposed of off-site, and work areas must be left clean upon project completion.
