Switchgear Equipment Preventative Maintenance and Repairs

Orange County, Florida is seeking a Request for Information (RFI) for Switchgear Equipment Preventative Maintenance and Repairs (Y22-605), targeting comprehensive maintenance services for medium and high voltage electrical infrastructure across multiple county facilities, including the Orange County Courthouse and Corrections Department complex. The procurement seeks vendors capable of providing preventative maintenance and repair services for electrical equipment ranging from 480 Volt through 15 Kvolts, with specific requirements for maintaining main switchboards, automatic and manual transfer switches, motor starters, motor control centers, power circuit breakers, vacuum breakers, protective relays, and transformers. Vendors must demonstrate technical capabilities in equipment maintenance, installation of new electrical fixtures and systems, equipment installation/demolition, backup generator provisions, and emergency service response capabilities. Electronic submissions will be accepted through the OpenGov Procurement portal until 4:00 PM local time on Thursday, April 7, 2022, with respondents required to provide detailed information about their organizational capabilities, safety standards compliance, and service methodologies. The RFI emphasizes that this is an information-gathering exercise with no immediate service purchase commitment, focusing on collecting comprehensive vendor capabilities data.

The solicitation encourages participation from Orange County Certified Minority businesses and requires respondents to complete a response form indicating their organizational type and contact information. While no specific award value or budget range is explicitly stated, the procurement appears designed to establish a pool of qualified vendors for future electrical maintenance and repair contracts. There are no explicit restrictions on vendor participation beyond the requirement to demonstrate technical competence and compliance with industry safety standards. The document does not reference any incumbent vendors or specify existing technological infrastructure requirements for integration. Potential respondents must provide comprehensive details about their organizational capabilities, technical expertise, and service methodologies without disclosing actual customer pricing, with the primary goal of identifying qualified vendors capable of supporting Orange County's diverse electrical maintenance needs across multiple government facilities.
