Memphis Light, Gas and Water Division (MLGW) is requesting quotations for Sleeve Compression #4/0 CU connectors (RFQ 1804668), with quotes due July 31, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time. This procurement is reserved exclusively for certified Local Small Businesses (LSBs) with headquarters in Shelby County, Tennessee under MLGW's supplier diversity program — a decision-flipping set-aside for purchases under $100,000.

The scope covers seamless copper compression splice sleeves for #4/0 stranded copper cable rated at 600 volts. Sleeves must feature a long barrel length, positive cable stop in the middle of the barrel, chamfered internal ends, and tin plating, and must be installable with a Kearney 5/8" die. A total quantity of 230 sleeves is required with a need-by date of August 28, 2026. Approved manufacturers include Anderson (HS-024), Burndy (YS28), CMC/ESP (CSH-4/0), Dossert (DPC-21), Homac (C-4/0), Maccorkle (SCS-4), Penn-Union (BBCU-4/0), and Richards Manufacturing (CC12).

Delivery is FOB Memphis, Tennessee, prepaid and allowed. MLGW's purchases are tax-exempt. Pricing is quoted on a per-unit basis. The price warranty clause requires that quoted prices be no less favorable than those extended to other customers for the same items in similar quantities. Bidders must provide manufacturer and catalog number, submit lead time information in the note-to-buyer field, include LSB certification copies, and complete the signature page with foreign adversary certification. The procurement is governed by Tennessee law with jurisdiction in Shelby County courts.
