Walker County DHR Light Installation

The State of Alabama, specifically the Department of Human Resources (DHR) for Walker County located in Tuscaloosa County, is seeking qualified vendors to perform a light installation project involving the replacement of approximately 72 non-functional light bulbs and 5 ballasts within their facility. A mandatory site visit is scheduled for Tuesday, May 27, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. CST, which all potential suppliers must attend to be eligible to submit a quote. The project requires vendors to remove existing non-functional ballasts, install new standard ballasts provided by DHR, confirm proper wiring, and ensure complete fixture functionality. Vendors must complete the entire installation in one trip during June 2025, with all associated costs including trip charges, mileage, supplies, labor, and necessary permits to be included in their quote. Participation is restricted to vendors active in Alabama Buys, and all installation work must be performed with the understanding that all debris will be disposed of off-site. The proposal is due by May 29, 2025, with payment terms set at net 30 and payment made in arrears after service completion.

While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed in the documentation, vendors must meet several qualifications to be considered for the contract. All vendors are required to have a current license at the time of award and installation, and they must be registered and active in the Alabama Buys electronic procurement system. The primary point of contact for this opportunity is Jamie McCollum, with additional contacts including Robin Mize and the main office line. Although a specific budget range is not provided, the procurement is structured as a unit price contract where vendors will quote a comprehensive price covering all aspects of the installation. The contract appears to be a one-time, fixed-scope project with no indication of incumbent vendors or complex technology integration requirements. Potential bidders should carefully review the attached specification document and the Standard Terms and Conditions for Quick Quotes to ensure full compliance with state procurement regulations.
