About this opportunity
The State of Louisiana, specifically the Military Department's Construction and Facilities Management Office, is soliciting bids for a comprehensive inspection and testing of Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) Systems located at the Army Aviation Support Facility #1 and C-12 facilities in Hammond, Louisiana. The procurement involves a single job requiring the contractor to provide all labor, parts, tools, materials, and equipment to inspect AFFF systems in accordance with UFC and NFPA standards, including a mandatory 2-year inspection involving simulated test liquid flow of approximately 15,000 to 20,000 gallons through system valves. Contractors must capture and dispose of all wastewater and complete the work within 180 days, operating during normal hours from Tuesday to Friday, 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, excluding state and federal holidays. A mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for August 27, 2025, at 10:00 AM, and vendors must sign in to remain eligible for bid consideration. The bid opening is set for September 10, 2025, with a vendor inquiry deadline of September 3, 2025. Evaluation criteria will focus on selecting the lowest responsive, responsible bidder meeting all specified requirements, with the state reserving the right to reject individual line items.
The procurement does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Bidders must be registered in the LaGov system and provide comprehensive documentation, including a W-9 form for newly registered vendors. Insurance requirements are stringent, mandating specific coverage including Workers Compensation, Commercial General Liability, and Automobile Liability with defined minimum coverage limits. Vendors must maintain specific A.M. Best ratings and comply with Louisiana's Life Safety and Property Protection Licensing laws. The contract includes provisions for potential renewals, allowing for two additional 12-month periods at the same prices, terms, and conditions, with a maximum total contract term of 36 months. Contractors and subcontractors must provide a 1-year warranty on workmanship, repairs, and installations. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the testing and inspection requirements suggests a significant scope of work that would require substantial technical expertise and resources.
