Pool Pump and Motor ? On Call for Service, Repair, and Maintenance

Mt. Hood Community College (MHCC) Aquatics Department is seeking bids for an on-call pool pump and motor service, repair, and maintenance contract for their Gresham campus located at 26000 SE Stark St. The procurement is a Request for Bids (RFB) designed to select two contractors - a primary and an alternate - for a 36-month term from August 15, 2023, through August 14, 2026. Bidders must provide detailed pricing, timelines for initial priority projects, material markup percentages, descriptions of replacement parts and processes, and emergency call-out fees. The evaluation criteria will comprehensively assess vendor qualifications, with 40% allocated to pricing, 50% to experience, and 10% to references. A mandatory pre-bid meeting is scheduled for August 4, 2023, and sealed bids are due by 2:30 pm on August 11, 2023. Vendors must demonstrate technical expertise in pool pump and motor servicing, with the potential for electrical work contingent upon possessing appropriate licensing.

The RFB does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged business enterprises. Contractors must provide proof of comprehensive insurance coverage, including general liability and workers' compensation. While no incumbent vendors are mentioned, the college requires vendors to be prepared to service multiple pool pumps and motors with varying specifications. The scope of work includes routine maintenance, emergency repairs, and potential full equipment replacements, suggesting a potentially significant contract value. Though an exact budget range is not specified, the 36-month contract duration and comprehensive service requirements indicate a substantial procurement opportunity. Prospective bidders should be prepared to demonstrate technical proficiency, rapid response capabilities, and competitive pricing structures to be considered for this contract.
