The Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) Contracts and Procurement Department is seeking bids for a comprehensive emergency generator replacement project at the Michael Unit, specifically Maintenance Work Request #03622028. The procurement involves acquiring one 150 kW John Deere diesel-driven generator with a 150 MPH rated, Level 1 sound attenuated enclosure, accompanied by a 600-amp automatic transfer switch and docking station. The generator must be a fully factory-assembled diesel-powered unit with a microprocessor-based controller, compliant with NFPA 110 standards for a Level 2 emergency system and EPA emissions requirements. Technical specifications mandate a 208/120VAC, 3-phase, 60 Hz generator with advanced monitoring capabilities including Wi-Fi connectivity and Modbus protocols. The solicitation was issued on May 22, 2025, with bids due on June 6, 2025, at 3 P.M., and electronic submission is preferred via BIDS@TDCJ.TEXAS.GOV with a 10 MB attachment limit, though a hard copy submission of one original signed paper copy is also acceptable. The procurement includes several set-aside preferences and restrictions favoring Texas-based businesses, specifically targeting service-disabled veterans and historically underutilized businesses (HUBs). Bidders must provide manufacturer's standard warranty, with the specific warranty duration to be specified by the bidder, and the current project includes a two-year warranty provision. Contractors must comply with various state requirements, including E-Verify verification, conflict of interest disclosures, and certification statements regarding business practices. While a specific budget range is not explicitly stated, the procurement is funded through the Texas Department of Criminal Justice and requires bidders to quote F.O.B. destination prepaid, with unit prices including all equipment delivery expenses. Prospective vendors must demonstrate manufacturer certification, meet extensive technical requirements, and provide a complete generator and transfer switch package from the same manufacturer, with comprehensive documentation of the system's performance capabilities and compliance with all specified technical and operational standards.
