Traffic Signal Cabinet Equipment

The City of Brighton in Adams County, Colorado, is seeking proposals for a Master Price Agreement to procure Traffic Signal Cabinet Equipment through RFP #25-009030M. The procurement involves furnishing and delivering specific traffic signal infrastructure components, including TS2 Type 1 Cabinets, Traffic Signal Controllers with graphics, and Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) systems from ZincBlue, such as 1000 Watt Inverters and 500 Watt Batteries. Qualified companies must submit comprehensive proposals detailing their capabilities, experience, project approach, work in progress, references, and warranties. Proposal questions are due by April 14, 2025, with final proposals required by May 2, 2025, at 10:00am MT. The initial contract term will be one year, with potential extensions up to four additional one-year terms, totaling a possible five-year contract period. Evaluation criteria will include the vendor's ability to provide detailed fee schedules, estimated lead times for each item, and compliance with technical specifications. The City reserves the right to award the contract to one or multiple contractors and can adjust contract quantities up to 25% of the total bid.

The solicitation encourages participation from disadvantaged business enterprises, offering opportunities for women-owned, minority-owned, small businesses, and disabled-owned enterprises. Vendors can self-identify under various business classification categories, which may provide additional consideration during the evaluation process. The City of Brighton offers a potential 10% bid reduction for local businesses meeting specific criteria, such as operating within city limits and maintaining current business licenses. Insurance requirements include minimum coverage of $1 million for various liability types, and vendors must comply with non-discrimination policies and federal, state, and local laws. While specific contract award values are not explicitly stated, the fee schedule template suggests the potential for significant infrastructure investment. The solicitation emphasizes flexibility, with no guaranteed or implied level of work to be ordered, and allows for potential cooperative purchasing opportunities with other governmental agencies.
