RFQ - Raw Water Intake Ball Valve #1 Purchase and Installation

West Travis County Public Utility Agency (WTCPUA) is requesting quotes for the purchase and installation of four motor-operated metal-seated raw water ball valves—one 10-inch and three 16-inch—at its Water Treatment Plant in Austin, Texas, with quotes due September 2, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. and public opening at 1:30 p.m. the same day.

The scope requires removal of existing valves, installation of DeZURIK VBL AWWA metal-seated ball valves with AUMA modulating actuators operating at 480V, crane services, installation materials, and commissioning support. Vendors must submit itemized quotes separated into seven line items covering valve costs, removal and disposal, labor and installation materials, crane rental and rigging services, freight and mobilization, and any additional charges. Quote packages must include estimated equipment lead time, anticipated field work duration, proposed project schedule, and earliest available mobilization date. Warranty terms for valves, actuators, workmanship, and installation materials must be stated.

Qualified vendors must demonstrate experience performing large-diameter water treatment plant valve removal and replacement work and must comply with all applicable safety requirements and site rules. WTCPUA strongly recommends a site visit prior to submission; vendors are responsible for verifying existing conditions, access requirements, lifting requirements, and shutdown constraints.

WTCPUA reserves the right to reject any or all quotes, waive informalities, and award in the best interest of the Agency. No contract value, contract term, funding source, set-asides, or incumbent information is specified in the RFQ. The RFQ is located in Bee Cave, Texas.
