CITY OF LA PORTE <br />RFP #13507 <br />=N648 Main Street Electrical Improvements <br />INTENT <br />The City of La Porte frequently hosts events on Main Street (e.g., Christmas on <br />Main Street) where vendors participate and market their wares. Currently those <br />vendors requiring electricity receive their power from portable generator(s). These <br />generators are frequently noisy and may disrupt nearby festivities (choir <br />performances, etc.). In addition to being noisy, they sometimes fail to provide <br />sufficient, consistent power to sufficiently light or operate the vendor display areas. <br />The City is seeking competitive proposals for a design/build approach to a <br />permanent underground electrical solution on Main Street between the <br />intersections of Main and 5t" Street, continuing eastward to the intersection of Main <br />and Broadway. <br />SCOPE OF WORK <br />The successful respondent will be responsible to evaluate existing conditions in the <br />target area, develop a design to satisfy the specifications contained herein and <br />submit for approval by the City, and then construct/install the project in accordance <br />with all applicable laws, Codes, regulations, safety and permitting requirements. <br />EVALUATION OF PROPOSALS <br />Proposals will be screened and the top candidates will be selected by a <br />committee of City staff. The qualifications for the top candidates will be verified <br />and references will be checked. In reviewing the proposals, the City will carefully <br />weigh: <br />Cost Estimate (40 points) <br />Please provide a cost estimate for your services as described. You may break out <br />each individual section, but please provide a final total for us to consider as we <br />evaluate your proposal. <br />Qualifications/Experience (40 points) <br />Please explain why your firm is best situated to provide the design and resulting <br />construction/installation services described, herein.
