Tilt Down Radio Tower and Climate Controlled Cabinet - Estelle Unit, Huntsville, Texas

The Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) is seeking bids for the procurement and installation of a 60-foot heavy-duty tilt-down radio tower, articulating antenna mounts, a climate-controlled outdoor cabinet enclosure, and related infrastructure at the Estelle Unit in Huntsville, Texas. The scope of work includes the installation of a concrete foundation pad, cable duct, grounding, and all necessary labor and materials. Offerors must demonstrate at least 5 years of experience in tower installation, maintenance, and repair, and provide references for similar projects. The contract may include a 10-year warranty for the radio tower and a 5-year warranty for other provided equipment, cabling, and parts. Bids are due by the revised date of March 31, 2023, and the contract term is for a 12-month period with options to renew for up to four additional 12-month periods.

The procurement covers the jurisdictions of Walker County and Humble City. While the solicitation documents do not explicitly mention any set-aside designations, they indicate that preference may be given to goods produced or offered by a Texas bidder that is owned by a service-disabled veteran. The current incumbent, if any, is not specified. The total value of the contract is not provided in the available documentation, but the TDCJ is seeking to establish a purchase order for the specified equipment and services.
