St Clair Co DHR Bulb & Ballast Installation

The State of Alabama, specifically the Department of Human Resources (DHR) for St. Clair County located in Shelby County, is seeking a qualified vendor to perform a comprehensive interior lighting installation project. The procurement involves a one-time replacement of non-functional light bulbs and ballasts across various facility areas including hallways, offices, training rooms, and restrooms. Specific material requirements include 19 emergency and regular 2ft bulbs, 20 4ft regular bulbs, 5 emergency ballasts, and 9 regular ballasts. A mandatory site visit is scheduled for Thursday, May 1, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. CST, where all potential suppliers must complete an event sign-in sheet and verify their active status in the Alabama Buys electronic procurement system. The project requires a single installation trip during May 2025, with vendors responsible for complete service including installation, removal, cleanup, and off-site disposal of old materials. Vendors must provide unit pricing covering all associated costs such as trip charges, mileage, supplies, labor, and potential permit fees, with payment terms set at net 30 and invoicing permitted only after service completion.

Participation in this procurement opportunity is restricted to vendors with current licenses on file at the time of award and installation. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned, vendors must comply with Alabama state procurement regulations, including the Beason-Hammon Alabama Taxpayer and Citizen Protection Act and E-Verify program requirements. The procurement follows standard state guidelines outlined in the Quick Quote Standard Boilerplate, which emphasizes strict compliance with state-specific regulations. Vendors must be registered in the Alabama Buys system and submit electronic quotes before the May 5, 2025 due date. Although a specific budget range is not provided, the project appears to be a relatively modest interior lighting upgrade for a county DHR facility. Successful vendors will need to demonstrate technical capability in lighting installation, proper disposal procedures, and adherence to all state procurement protocols.
