Western Virginia Water Authority is requesting quotes for a medium-voltage starter retrofill for Blower #8 at the Roanoke Regional Water Pollution Control Plant (1502 Brownlee Avenue SE, Roanoke, Virginia), with quotes due November 6, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. A mandatory site visit on October 28, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. is required; contractors who do not attend will have their quotes deemed non-responsive.

The scope is furnishing, technical design, installation, testing, and commissioning of a complete turnkey retrofill compatible with the existing Square D Model 3 IsoFlex medium-voltage motor control center. The retrofill must include a Toshiba JK OEM Power Cell or approved equal with a 400-amp fixed-type contactor rated for 7,200 volts maximum, double-barrel fuse clips, new copper bus, new front door with barriers and supports, control power transformer, and a front-section extension of approximately 12 to 14 inches. Contractors must submit a lump-sum price covering all labor, materials, equipment, technical design, freight, installation, testing, startup, and commissioning, along with estimated lead times for fabrication and delivery, estimated installation duration, and warranty terms for both equipment and labor. All proposed exclusions, optional items, or additional costs must be clearly identified; the Authority will not cover costs for items reasonably necessary for completion that were not disclosed as exclusions.

Quotes may be submitted through eVA or by email to Trent.Cox@westernvawater.org. The Western Virginia Water Authority intends to award to the lowest responsive and responsible contractor meeting all requirements and reserves the right to reject any or all quotes and to waive minor irregularities.
