Locomotive Air Blower Repair

The State of Nevada Division of Museums and History is seeking proposals for the repair and installation of an air blower for Locomotive 1855, a museum artifact located at the Nevada State Railroad Museum in Boulder City. The project tasks include rebuilding a Fairbanks Morse six cylinder scavenging air blower, shipping the rebuilt blower to the museum, installing the blower in the locomotive, and timing the blower on-site. Vendors must have successful experience with similar projects and submit their proposals by June 30, 2022 at 2:00 PM Pacific. The anticipated contract start date is July 15, 2022, contingent upon approval by the Nevada State Board of Examiners. Vendors must include all costs for parts, labor, shipping, and installation in their proposals. The contract will be awarded to the vendor whose proposal is deemed most reasonable.

There are no set-asides or incumbent vendors mentioned in the RFP. Funding for the project will come from the State of Nevada. The RFP does not provide any specific award value or budget range, but states that the contract will be awarded to the vendor whose proposal is deemed most reasonable.
