SO-1862 Electrical Infrastructure/install chargers/bess

Lansing Public School District is soliciting bids for electrical infrastructure supporting EV chargers and battery energy storage systems (BESS) at four school facilities under SO-1862, with bids due November 12, 2026. The listing's jurisdiction field names Grand Traverse County, Michigan (FIPS 26055), while Addendum 2 identifies Lansing Public School District as the issuer, so bidders should confirm the issuing body against the solicitation documents.

The work covers design and installation of electrical infrastructure at North Environmental Science Magnet School, Pattengill Biotechnical Magnet School, Wexford Montessori Academy, and Cavanaugh STEAM Elementary School. EV charger capacities range from 120 kilowatts to 240 kilowatts, varying by site, with BESS controls integrated with existing solar panel infrastructure. Site configurations include main distribution panels, automatic transfer switches, surge protection devices, and transformers. Contractors must demonstrate capability in electrical design, installation, and integration of complex charging and storage systems, and must adhere to applicable electrical codes and safety standards.

Addendum 2, posted November 10, 2026, responds to bidder inquiries and includes preliminary one-line diagrams (Sheets E-1, E-3, E-5, and E-7) issued for bidding purposes only. Construction-level drawings will be issued after the bid date, and the engineer must field-verify the one-line diagrams before final implementation. CTC Engineering, LLC prepared the addendum. Addendum 1, also posted November 10, 2026, requires bidders to acknowledge receipt and incorporate its provisions, and its pricing, evaluation, and performance terms supersede conflicting original solicitation provisions. Failure to acknowledge and incorporate the addendum may result in bid rejection.
