Utility plant operator

The State Correctional Institutional at Camp Hill is soliciting contracted services for four (4) Utility Plant Operators to manage industrial-sized Coal and Oil Fired Boiler Systems. The contracted operators will be responsible for operating complex boiler infrastructure, working a standard 40-hour work week without overtime. Potential vendors are required to attend a mandatory site visit on December 8, 2010, at 0900 hours, located at the Boiler Plant within the institution's rear area. Interested contractors must thoroughly review plant operations and associated responsibilities during this visit. Key contacts for the procurement are Howard Gouse (ext. 5259, hgouse@state.pa.us) and Daniel Rhome (ext. 4324, drhome@state.pa.us), who can provide additional details about the contract opportunity. The procurement is specifically located in Cumberland County, with the contract opportunity formally posted on November 24, 2010, and proposals due by December 15, 2010.

While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed in the procurement documents, the contract appears to be a standard service procurement for utility plant management. The solicitation does not indicate specific restrictions on vendor types or disadvantaged enterprise requirements. No incumbent vendor information is provided, and details about existing infrastructure integration are limited to the description of coal and oil-fired boiler systems. Although a specific award value or budget range is not specified, the requirement for four operators suggests a substantial service contract. The procurement is issued by the Pennsylvania state correctional system, specifically targeting the Camp Hill facility, which implies a government service contract with potential for ongoing or renewable service engagement.
