Water Meter Replacement

The Lee County Utility Authority in Leesburg, Georgia is seeking qualifications from firms to provide labor for the installation and retrofitting of approximately 7,000 water meters in the county. The selected Meter Installer will be responsible for the installation and data management of both new AMI meters and existing AMR meters, with the goal of obtaining a complete set of GPS-located meters integrated with the Authority's Tyler Technology software. Firms must submit their qualifications by January 30, 2024, and selection will be based on factors such as the firm's experience, proximity to Lee County, and ability to meet the project's technical and timeline requirements. The RFQ includes pricing details for various meter sizes and retrofit installations, as well as a $100,000 line item for miscellaneous contingency costs. Firms are encouraged to request the RFQ's scoring criteria, which include factors such as familiarity with the community, price competitiveness, completeness of the response, ability to provide the required services, and the capability of the proposed staff and subcontractors.

The RFQ does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. There is also no information provided about any incumbent vendors or current contractors, or any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The RFQ does not include any details on the possible award value or budget range for this project.
