UPS Battery Maintenance

The State of Nevada's Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation, specifically the Bureau of Disability Adjudication (BDA), is seeking qualified vendors to provide comprehensive maintenance and repair services for its Liebert Universal Power Supply System. The procurement involves annual, quarterly, and semi-annual preventative maintenance, equipment replacements, and repair services for power distribution systems, stationary battery systems, and uninterruptible power systems. Vendors must submit detailed written estimates with labor and material costs, with material charges limited to cost plus 25%. Mandatory requirements include compliance with Nevada contractor licensing and insurance regulations, and the ability to perform maintenance on specific Liebert equipment models. The contract duration is anticipated to be four years, pending Board of Examiners approval. The solicitation requires vendors to submit quotes through the NevadaEPro system, with a submission deadline of December 3, 2024. Evaluation criteria will likely include pricing, technical capabilities, compliance with specifications, and the vendor's ability to meet the comprehensive maintenance requirements for the specified power systems.

The contract appears to have preferences for Nevada-based businesses and may include an administrative fee up to 1% of the contract value. Funding for this contract is predominantly supported by federal grants, with 78.7% coverage for the Vocational Rehabilitation program, 95% for the Supported Employment program, and 90% for the Independent Living Services for Older Individuals Who are Blind program. While no specific set-aside designations are explicitly mentioned, the emphasis on Nevada-based businesses suggests potential advantages for local vendors. The equipment inventory includes a power distribution system, stationary sealed battery systems, and a three-phase uninterruptible power system, all manufactured by Liebert. Though the exact contract value is not specified, vendors should be prepared to provide comprehensive maintenance services for these critical infrastructure components. The procurement is structured to ensure continuous, reliable operation of the agency's power systems through professional, scheduled maintenance and prompt repair services.
