WWTF - South Emergency Generator Repair

The City of Nashua, New Hampshire, through its Division of Public Works, is soliciting bids for the WWTF South Emergency Generator Repair project (IFB0499-091125) located at 2 Sawmill Road. The primary objective is to replace the radiator and associated components in one of the Wastewater Treatment Facility's emergency generators. Qualified contractors must have a minimum of five years of experience in industrial emergency generator repair and will be responsible for completing the project within 49 consecutive calendar days for substantial completion and 56 consecutive calendar days for final completion. A mandatory pre-bid meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, August 19, 2025, at 10:00am, with a second mandatory pre-bid meeting on Friday, August 22 at 11:30am, both in-person and via Zoom. Bids are due on Thursday, September 11, 2025, at 2:00pm, with liquidated damages of $500 per working day for delays beyond the established completion dates. Bidders must submit a bid bond equivalent to 5% of the bid price and maintain comprehensive insurance coverage, including $1,000,000 in general liability and automobile liability insurance.

The City encourages participation from disadvantaged business enterprises and is committed to environmental considerations in its procurement process. For contracts exceeding $35,000, performance and payment bonds will be required. Bidders must obtain all necessary permits and perform work in accordance with federal, state, and local regulations. The bid remains binding for 90 days following the bid deadline, and the City reserves the right to reject any or all bids. Potential bidders must acknowledge the addendum to be considered for the contract, with failure to do so resulting in automatic disqualification. While a specific budget range is not explicitly stated, the comprehensive insurance and bonding requirements suggest this is a significant municipal infrastructure project. The contract appears to be open to any qualified contractor meeting the specified experience and insurance requirements, with a focus on technical capability and compliance with municipal standards.
