Wastewater Treatment Plant New Generator Installation

The City of South Lyon is seeking bids for a Wastewater Treatment Plant New Generator Installation project through the Michigan Intergovernmental Trade Network (MITN). The procurement involves installing a new 750kW Cummins Diesel Generator while maintaining the existing 550kW diesel generator as an emergency backup system. Key deliverables include site excavations, tree removals, trenching, concrete foundation work, generator installation, and site restoration. Contractors must provide comprehensive qualifications demonstrating previous relevant experience, submit a detailed quality control plan, and comply with local, state, and federal regulations. The project requires substantial completion by November 1, 2024, with final completion by November 15, 2024. A mandatory on-site pre-bid meeting is scheduled for July 30, 2024, at 10:00 AM, with pre-proposal questions due by August 6, 2024, at 3 PM. Sealed bids are due on August 20, 2024, at 11:00 AM at the City Clerk's Counter, with a required 5% bid bond or certified check.

The solicitation does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The project will involve coordination with U.I.S. for upgrades to the existing main switchgear, including removing mechanical relay switches and upgrading to an Allen-Bradley Micrologix 1400 PLC system. The generator has been pre-purchased by the City of South Lyon and is scheduled for delivery in early October. Successful bidders must provide performance, labor and material, and maintenance bonds. While the exact project budget is not specified, the procurement involves integrating the new generator with existing infrastructure, including the current control panel and manual transfer switch. The City reserves the right to reject all bids and waive irregularities in the bidding process. Contractors will need to demonstrate technical capability to work with the existing wastewater treatment plant infrastructure and complete the installation within the specified timeframe.
