Bidders must possess proper contractor licensing as required by state law and are mandated to conduct a thorough site investigation prior to proposal submission. A mandatory pre-bid meeting is scheduled for September 30, 2024, at 10:00 AM, with both in-person and virtual attendance options. Sealed bids are due on October 21, 2025, at 2:00 PM, to be submitted to 115 Chatham Street, Suite 301, Sanford, NC.

The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder, with a total contract time of 365 calendar days from the commencement date.
The procurement encourages participation from minority, women, and small business enterprises (MWSBE), with a 10% participation goal. Bidders must submit detailed documentation demonstrating good faith efforts to meet this goal, including specific affidavits and outreach evidence. The project includes a $30,000 allowance for unforeseen conditions and will be funded by Lee County Government. While no incumbent vendors are specified, the project involves comprehensive electrical system modifications, including installing a new remote annunciator, replacing the automatic transfer switch, providing new feeders for panel EM, and implementing a 12.5kVA lighting inverter for life safety loads. The natural gas infrastructure will be updated to support the new generator, with the existing gas demand increasing from 300 CFH to 3,300 CFH, and the utility provider responsible for meter replacement. Lee County reserves the right to reject any or all bids, with the final project cost to be determined through the competitive bidding process.
