The City of Dothan Utilities awarded a contract to Aclara Technologies, LLC for the purchase of advanced electric meters and water‑meter transmission units (MTUs) to support its AMI (Advanced Metering Infrastructure) program. The procurement was conducted as an open bid, but only one qualified offer was received, which was accepted as the lowest‑and‑final price. The total estimated value of the award is $175,883.40, covering multiple meter models and transmission units.
• Scope includes delivery of 100 KV2C Gen5 16s three‑phase electric meters, 100 1‑210+C 2s single‑phase electric meters, 50 compact 1‑210+C L‑Model meters, and 672 Internal‑star 3400 water‑meter transmission units.
• All equipment must meet city‑specified technical specs, include remote‑disconnect capability, and comply with federal tariff regulations for the electric meters.
• The award is a single‑source, unit‑price contract with no stated term length, renewal options, or performance schedule; the city will manage installation and integration into its existing utility network.
