Fieldhouse 159TR UIT Racks to Generator

The Montana State University Fieldhouse requires a contractor to design, supply, and install 159‑ton UIT (Uninterruptible Power Supply) racks that will connect to a new natural‑gas‑fueled generator, including demolition of existing electrical equipment, new electrical distribution, mechanical piping, and a structural canopy. The work also involves transporting the existing generator and automatic transfer switch to a university yard, coordinating new gas service, painting hallway conduits white, and performing grass restoration after trenching. The project is valued in the mid‑six‑figure range and must be substantially completed by 23 September 2026. • Electrical scope: demolition, new conduit, panelboards, transfer switches, and underground lighting circuit (hand‑digging required). • Mechanical & civil scope: natural‑gas piping, generator canopy framing, concrete footings, and grass repair/seeding. • Coordination: State‑level permitting (DOLI), city of Bozeman utilities, Northwestern Energy gas service, and MSU facilities. • Mandatory pre‑bid site visit on 09 Oct 2025; bid submission due 28 Oct 2025 with 10 % bid security for bids ≥ $150 k and 100 % performance/labor bonds.
