The Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) is seeking two qualified contractors to provide on-call electrical services for ODOT Region 1 through an Invitation to Bid (ITB #S-73000-00012661). The procurement will establish a one-year Price Agreement (PA) with potential extensions up to seven additional years. Contractors must provide comprehensive electrical maintenance, repair, and installation services, including work on high and low voltage power systems, traffic signals, lighting, control cabinets, and Intelligent Transportation systems. Required qualifications include an Oregon Construction Contractors Board license, minimum three years of experience in similar services, and the ability to maintain an office within the service area. Contractors must be capable of responding within 24 hours for regular service requests and 1-3 hours for emergency services, utilizing equipment such as bucket trucks, boom trucks, and aerial lifts. The bid submission is due by March 13, 2025, through the OregonBuys eProcurement system, with bidders required to submit detailed cost estimates, pricing for various service categories, and equipment rates. Contractors must also provide insurance certificates and compliance documentation within five business days of intent to award.

The procurement does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises. Bidders must demonstrate tax compliance, non-discrimination practices, and equal employment opportunity policies, with additional requirements for contracts over $150,000 including sexual harassment prevention policies. The contract allows for reimbursement of licensed equipment at actual costs plus a 10% markup, with pricing to remain fixed for the first 12 months and potential subsequent adjustments based on the Consumer Price Index. While no specific budget range is provided, the contract structure suggests a flexible, as-needed service model with compensation through fixed unit prices and individual purchase orders. Contractors must provide the most favorable pricing offered to any government or commercial customer and submit annual sales volume reports. The agreement includes provisions for emergency work corrections and allows ODOT to potentially select a third-lowest eligible bidder for up to nine months following the solicitation close.
