Los Alamos County's Department of Public Utilities is seeking to procure a mobile 560kW diesel-powered emergency generator through Request for Proposals (RFP26-36), with an option to purchase a second unit of identical specifications. The primary objective is to provide backup support during critical water production and distribution system outages, partially funded through the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP). Proposals are due on October 16, 2025, with a non-mandatory pre-proposal conference scheduled for October 1, 2025. The county will evaluate proposals using a 100-point scoring system, allocating points across qualifications and experience (15 points), description of services (20 points), warranty (15 points), maintenance and support (20 points), and cost proposal (30 points). Vendors must submit comprehensive proposals including detailed specifications, maintenance plans, warranty information, and pricing for potential multi-year contract periods, with the contract term potentially extending up to seven years. The solicitation encourages participation from various business categories, including local Los Alamos businesses, New Mexico resident businesses, Native American resident businesses, and resident veteran businesses. Specific preference categories are available for businesses meeting certain criteria, such as being incorporated in New Mexico, maintaining a principal office in Los Alamos County, and possessing a current valid Los Alamos County Business License. Prospective contractors must complete several mandatory forms, including a Campaign Contribution Disclosure Form, Certification Regarding Debarment, and a Verification of Authorized Offeror Form. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the RFP indicates flexibility in purchasing one, two, or no generators based on received proposals. Vendors must also demonstrate capability through a minimum of three references for similar services performed within the last 3-5 years and comply with comprehensive insurance requirements, including general liability, workers' compensation, and professional liability coverage.
