Description

The contract calls for the design‑build installation of a new underground electrical distribution system in Port Heiden, Alaska, covering Phases 1 and 2.

Contract value

$2,500,000

The solicitation’s “Engineer’s estimate” is quoted at $2 million to $3 million. Given the scope—hundreds of feet of 15 kV conduit, multiple pad‑mounted transformers, extensive trenching, demolition, and street‑lighting—the likely awarded price will fall near the midpoint of that range. Assuming average unit costs for underground cable ($15‑$20 per foot), transformers ($150‑$200 k each), and ancillary work, a reasonable ballpark is about $2.5 million. This estimate also aligns with typical budgets for comparable rural Alaska distribution upgrades.
