Exit Sign/Emergency Light Upgrade to Torrington Middle & Vogel-Wetmore School

The Torrington Board of Education is seeking a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for an Exit Sign and Emergency Light Upgrade project targeting two specific school facilities: Torrington Middle School and Vogel-Wetmore School, located in Litchfield County, Connecticut. The procurement involves comprehensive labor, materials, and installation services for upgrading emergency light fixtures and exit signs throughout both school buildings. A mandatory pre-bid meeting is scheduled for April 11, 2024, at 1:00 PM, beginning at Torrington Middle School (200 Middle School Drive) and continuing to Vogel-Wetmore School (68 Church Street). Prospective bidders must attend this pre-bid meeting to be eligible to submit a proposal, with bids due on April 23, 2024, by 11:00 AM. The project requires vendors to provide all necessary materials and perform complete installation services, with delivery terms specified as Free On Board Destination and payment terms to be vendor-specified. The solicitation includes multiple required documents such as Instructions to Bidders, Non-Collusion Affidavit, and an Official Bid form, with contact person Dean Pergola available at 860-601-1114 or dpergola@torrington.org for any inquiries.

The solicitation does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on organizational types that can respond, indicating the opportunity is open to all vendors. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are mentioned in the documentation, and there are no explicit details about existing infrastructure requiring integration. The RFQ does not provide an estimated total contract value or specific budget range for the project. The procurement appears to be a standard competitive bidding process without special enterprise qualifications or targeted business categories. Potential bidders will need to demonstrate capability to perform comprehensive emergency lighting and exit sign upgrades across two school facilities, with the ability to meet the mandatory pre-bid meeting requirement and submit a comprehensive proposal by the specified deadline. While financial details are not explicitly outlined, vendors should be prepared to provide competitive pricing and demonstrate technical expertise in school facility lighting upgrades.
