About this opportunity
The Massachusetts Operational Services Division (OSD) through its Commonwealth Print and Mail Services (CPMS) in Suffolk County is seeking welding services to modify existing printing and mail sorting equipment to enhance employee safety. The procurement specifically requires a vendor to custom build safety barriers on equipment to comply with OSHA machine guarding standards, focusing on two primary equipment areas: a commercial mail sorter and LDU and camera stations. Prospective bidders must conduct a mandatory site visit before submitting quotes, with tentative walk-throughs scheduled for Tuesday, December 17, 2024, between 8 AM - 2 PM. Interested vendors must email donna.ellis5@mass.gov by Monday, December 16, at 12:00 PM to request a specific site visit time and provide attendee names. The project requires installing machine guarding that prevents employee exposure to hazardous moving parts, stops mechanical motion when doors are open, and cannot be defeated or bypassed, with the ultimate goal of ensuring compliance with 29 CFR 1910.212(a)(1) safety standards.
While no specific set-aside designations or disadvantaged enterprise requirements are explicitly mentioned in the documentation, the project will be subject to prevailing wage regulations. The work will be performed at the CPMS print shop located at 200 Arlington Street, Chelsea, MA, which suggests potential local workforce engagement. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the provided materials, and no specific budget range or award value is disclosed. The project appears to be a targeted safety improvement initiative focused on modifying existing equipment infrastructure to meet occupational safety standards. Vendors responding to this opportunity will need demonstrated welding expertise, the ability to design and install custom machine guards, and a comprehensive understanding of OSHA safety requirements for industrial equipment.
