Non-Portable Water System Replacement

The state of New Hampshire, specifically Cheshire County, is seeking proposals for a non-portable water system replacement project targeting the replacement of two service water pumps originally installed in 1985. The procurement opportunity, identified as Bid No. 01-26-07, encompasses comprehensive engineering design and new pumping system installation. The project requires detailed engineering services to develop a complete replacement strategy for the existing infrastructure, with a specific focus on designing and implementing modern, efficient water pumping equipment. Interested contractors must submit their proposals by October 10, 2025, adhering to all specifications outlined in the attached government files: Bid No. 01-26-07 Attachment A, Attachment B, and Issue Copy. While specific evaluation criteria are not explicitly detailed in the provided information, typical municipal infrastructure projects often assess vendor qualifications, technical expertise, proposed methodology, cost-effectiveness, and compliance with engineering standards and local regulatory requirements.

The contract opportunity does not explicitly specify set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. However, given the technical nature of water system infrastructure replacement, potential bidders will likely need demonstrated experience in municipal engineering, water system design, and pump installation. The existing infrastructure consists of water service pumps that have been in operation since 1985, suggesting a need for vendors with expertise in modernizing legacy water system components. While no specific budget range is provided in the available documentation, municipal infrastructure replacement projects of this nature typically range from $250,000 to $1.5 million, depending on the complexity of engineering design and actual installation requirements. Contractors interested in this opportunity should carefully review the attached PDF documents, which likely contain detailed technical specifications, submission guidelines, and potential pre-qualification requirements for this Cheshire County water system upgrade project.
