Lighting Fixture and Controls Replacement Various Schools project # 20222-01

The Centennial School District in Oregon is soliciting bids for the Lighting Fixture and Controls Replacement project (project # 20222-01), which involves comprehensive lighting upgrades across seven school sites within the district. The procurement seeks contractors to remove and replace existing lighting fixtures and controls, with no new wiring required for one-to-one replacements. Electrical drawings for multiple schools including Centennial High School, Meadows Elementary, Patrick Lynch Elementary, Butler Creek, Parklane, Powell Butte, and Pleasant Valley have been provided, detailing the specific electrical and lighting system requirements. Bidders must be registered with the Oregon Construction Contractors Board and comply with school district policies regarding personnel background checks, fingerprinting, and COVID-19 vaccination. The bid submission deadline is February 2, 2022, at 2:00 PM, with a non-mandatory pre-bid conference previously held on January 20, 2022. The project timeline indicates on-site work will commence between February 21 and March 22, 2022, with substantial completion required by September 2, 2022. Contractors must provide a 10% bid security and meet specific insurance requirements outlined in the bid documents.

The contract opportunity does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged business enterprises. The estimated total project budget is $2,900,000, with the contract to be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Funding will be provided through the Centennial School District's budget, and payment and performance bonds will be required. Interested contractors can obtain bid documents through OregonBuys or the Contractor Plan Center. The contract appears to be a single-year agreement with potential for future work, though no incumbent vendor is specified. Bidders must carefully review all technical specifications, drawings, and contract documents, including prevailing wage requirements and non-discrimination policies. The project will involve replacing lighting fixtures across multiple school sites, with careful attention to maintaining existing electrical infrastructure while upgrading to more modern and energy-efficient lighting systems.
