Term Contract for Maintenance & Improvement

The Alaska Energy Authority issued a competitive solicitation for a multi‑year term contract to perform construction, maintenance, and improvement services on small fuel‑system projects across the state, beginning with the Akiak Barge Header & Fill‑Line upgrade. The contract is a fixed‑price, lump‑sum agreement with a base term of two years and up to four one‑year renewal options. The awardee will provide pre‑construction services, execute a series of small‑scale projects (typically ≤ $250 k each), and manage all associated safety, environmental, and quality‑control requirements. • Scope includes removal/installation of barge headers, flanged connections, pipe supports, labeling, and related site‑work. • Technical requirements mandate hot‑dip galvanized steel supports, field‑applied fusion‑bonded epoxy coating (Pipeclad 5000 or Protal 7200), grounding, signage, and compliance with OSHA, EPA, and Alaska construction codes. • The contract value ceiling is $500‑$1 million for the entire term, with individual projects generally ≤ $100 k, and requires a 5 % bid bond, $500 k performance and payment bonds, and retainage up to 10 % of progress payments.
