Underground Electric Power Cable

The City of Norwich, Connecticut has issued Invitation to Bid (ITB) No. 7691 for the procurement of underground electric power cable, located within New London County. The solicitation was posted on August 16, 2021, with a bid closing date of August 31, 2021, at 2:00 PM EDT. The procurement is specifically for underground electric power cable, though the exact technical specifications, quantities, and project scope are not detailed in the available documentation. Vendors interested in the opportunity can direct questions to Robert Castronova, the City of Norwich contact, who can be reached at 860-823-3770 or rcastronova@cityofnorwich.org. The delivery terms are specified as Free On Board Destination, indicating that the vendor is responsible for delivering the cable to a designated location. The solicitation is open to all vendors and does not appear to have specific technical qualification requirements beyond the ability to supply underground electric power cable.

The ITB does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond to the solicitation. No information is provided about incumbent vendors, current contractors, or existing infrastructure that might require integration with the procured cable. The documentation consistently omits critical financial details, including the estimated total contract value, line items, or specific pricing terms. Payment terms are broadly noted as "Vendor Specified," which suggests flexibility in negotiating financial arrangements. The lack of detailed financial information and technical specifications makes it challenging to assess the full scope and potential value of the contract. Potential bidders will need to carefully review the full solicitation documents and potentially contact the City of Norwich directly for more comprehensive information about the procurement opportunity.
