Description
The Springfield Water and Sewer Commission is seeking Statements of Qualifications (SOQs) from General Contractors for the Cobble Mountain Unit 3 Turbine Generator Rehabilitation project. The project involves disassembly, cleaning, inspection, replacement, rehabilitation, or overhaul of major components of the turbine and generator, as well as reassembly, realignment, start-up, and commissioning at the Cobble Mountain Powerhouse in Westfield, MA. The estimated construction cost is $16,500,000, and prospective GCs must hold a DCAMM Certification in "MECHANICAL SYSTEMS" with a single limit greater than this amount.
• The project is part of a two-step Request for Proposals (RFP) process, with the first step involving the submission of SOQs and the second step involving the submission of bids from prequalified respondents.
• The Commission will select respondents based on the criteria set forth in the RFQ, and only prequalified GC firms will be permitted to submit bids in the second step.
• The ultimate awarding of a contract resulting from the RFB is subject to the approval of the Board of Commissioners of the Commission.
• A register of all respondents' names will be publicly available, but SOQs will be read and evaluated privately.
