ITB 26-710 District Wide On-Demand Electrical Services

The DeKalb County School District (DCSD) has issued Invitation to Bid (ITB) 26-710 for District Wide On-Demand Electrical Services, seeking qualified electrical contractors to provide comprehensive electrical maintenance and installation services across its 139 schools and centers. The procurement covers electrical work for 77 elementary schools, 19 middle schools, 22 high schools, 8 start-up charter schools, 12 specialized learning centers, 6 administrative centers, and 5 athletic stadiums. Key deliverables include installation, renovation, maintenance, emergency repairs, low-voltage wiring, preventive maintenance, and code compliance across district properties. Bidders must demonstrate a minimum of five years of commercial electrical service experience, possess a valid Georgia Electrical Contractor License, and have OSHA 10 safety certification. Critical procurement dates include a pre-bid conference on September 30, 2025, at 11:00 AM, with questions due by October 3, 2025, and bid submissions required by October 16, 2025, at 2:00 PM. The evaluation criteria focus on selecting the lowest responsive and responsible bidder meeting all specified requirements, with DCSD reserving the right to make multiple awards.

The solicitation does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The initial contract term is one year with potential for up to four additional 1-year extensions, contingent on DCSD board of education funding and approval. Contractors must provide comprehensive insurance coverage and comply with immigration verification requirements. Pricing must include all labor, materials, equipment, insurance, administrative costs, and associated expenses, with no additional charges permitted. While specific budget ranges are not detailed, the extensive scope covering 139 facilities suggests a significant contract value. Contractors must demonstrate the ability to respond to emergency calls within two hours and submit various compliance documentation with their bid. The procurement approach allows for flexibility by potentially awarding to multiple vendors who can meet the district's comprehensive electrical service needs across its extensive property portfolio.
