Request for proposals for a wireless control system for the City if Leominster's 3, 500 streetlights

The State of Massachusetts, through the City of Leominster, is seeking proposals for a wireless control system for its 3,500 LED streetlights. The procurement is for the design, implementation, and maintenance of a centralized system to remotely monitor and control the city's streetlights. Key objectives include improved energy efficiency, reduced maintenance costs, and enhanced public safety through better lighting management. Qualified vendors should have experience in deploying large-scale outdoor wireless network infrastructure and integrating with existing LED lighting systems. Proposals will be evaluated based on technical capabilities, project management approach, and cost-effectiveness. The deadline for submissions is May 23, 2017, with an anticipated project start date in June 2017.

This contract opportunity does not appear to have any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The city has not identified any incumbent vendors or current contractors, and the proposal does not mention any specific infrastructure or technology that requires integration. While an exact award value is not provided, the scope of the project, which involves upgrading the lighting system for the entire city, suggests a substantial budget allocation for this initiative.
