Project Description:
The Cabarrus County Planning and Development Services Department may be awarded funding to administer the Weatherization Program for 2024-2025 in Cabarrus County. As part of that program, some electrical modifications may be provided for residential properties with regard to the installation of exhaust fans.
Scope:
Cabarrus County is accepting proposals from electrical contractors for potential work under the Weatherization Program. The contractor cannot be disbarred from performing work where
federal funds are paying for the service and must have a valid North Carolina Electrical License. Cabarrus County may or may not award bids or enter into contracts for electrical services for
the Weatherization program. All contractors are required to carry liability, auto, and if applicable, workman's compensation at approved levels by the county. Please see the attached
information for insurance requirements.
All contractors submitting proposals must include background checks for any employees that would be going to homes to perform work. You may go to the website in order to get background checks that are nationwide.
E-Verify:
As required by N.C.G.S. 143-48.5 (Session Law 2013-418), the Subgrantee certifies that it, and each of its subcontractors for any contract awarded as a result of this solicitation, complies with the requirements of Article 2 of Chapter 64 of the NC General Statutes, including the requirement for each employer with more than 25 employees in North Carolina to verify the work authorization of its employees through the federal E Verify system. Proof of participation must be presented for companies larger than 25 employees.
The contractor may not solicit or provide additional services outside the contract with Cabarrus County to low-income clients who have received NC WAP services or HHI services due to their contact with the client through Cabarrus County programs.
