Rehabilitation and refurbishment of #4 raw water pump at P. O. Hoffer water plant

The Fayetteville Public Works Commission (PWC) in North Carolina's Cumberland County is seeking bids for the rehabilitation and refurbishment of the #4 Raw Water Pump at the P.O. Hoffer Water Plant. The pump, installed in 1992, has lost over 10% of its original 18MGD capacity and requires refurbishment to restore full functionality. The scope of work includes the removal, inspection, repair, and reinstallation of the pump to ensure reliable operation. Bidders must submit pricing on the provided Bid Pricing Form, and the bid submittal deadline is October 15, 2024. PWC plans to consider the bids and obtain commission and council approval by November 13 and December 9, 2024, respectively, with an anticipated award and sale of goods agreement on December 11, 2024.

The IFB includes detailed specifications for the work, which includes mobilization, disassembly and transportation of the pump components, inspection, repair and refurbishment tasks, reassembly and installation, and testing and start-up. PWC has set Minority, Women, and Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (MWDBE) participation goals of 14% for MBE firms and 11% for WBE firms, and will consider the bidder's good-faith efforts to engage MWDBEs in evaluating the bids. No information is provided about incumbent vendors or current contractors, or the available budget for this project.
