TCLP is requesting bids for a contract for the period of July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2026 for electrical distribution system construction and maintenance services. TCLP operates a 13.8 kV electrical distribution system, the majority of which is 13.8 kV overhead and underground with limited 69 kV transmission. TCLP has electric system operating personnel to perform normal operating, maintenance and limited construction work on the system. However, TCLP has need of a contract arrangement to supplement that work force on an as-needed basis. The work may include emergency response, routine operation and maintenance work as well as capital improvement work. The Contractor shall furnish all labor, supervision, tools, equipment, fuel (no provisions for fuel cost adjustments), insurance and transportation necessary to perform tasks as assigned. All materials will be provided by TCLP unless an emergency occurs whereby it is necessary for the Contractor to purchase materials while onsite. You must submit TWO (2) SEALED COPIES of the bid to TCLP prior to the above-indicated time and date or the bid will not be accepted. Alternatively, E-Mailed bids will be accepted. Please indicate in the subject line of your e-mail that you are submitting a "Sealed Bid" together with the project description, "Electric Line Distribution Construction Contractor Services," and submit your e-mailed bid to stvardek@tclp.org. Please note that if you have previously submitted an informal quote, you will still need to submit a sealed bid prior to the date and time specified above in order to be considered. Please ensure that all requirements listed in the specifications are met. The Contractor shall, at the time of execution hereof by TCL&P, provide a performance bond in an amount of not less than one-hundred percent (100%) of the contract price in favor of TCL&P, conditioned upon the faithful performance of the contract and completion on or before the date specified; and a labor and material bond running to TCL&P in an amount of not less than one-hundred percent (100%) of the contract price for the protection of subcontractors, material suppliers and labor. The bonds shall be in substantially the same form as the current AIA bond forms, or in such other form as is approved by TCL&P's General Counsel. TCL&P may waive the requirement for these bonds if the contract is less than $50,000 and the signature of the Executive Director appearing at the end of this paragraph shall be deemed to be a waiver of the bond requirements
