Electrical installations for roof-curb equipment at four Cedar Rapids facilities

The City of Cedar Rapids is seeking electrical installation work to support new roof curbs and communications equipment at four city facilities. - Government buyer: City of Cedar Rapids, Facilities Maintenance Services Division; Purchasing Services is identified in the bid invitation. Related project documents also identify the City Clerk and Public Works Department. - Requested work: Provide and install watertight conduit, wiring, breakers, and CAT-6A cabling for three First Responder Drone platforms, two radio antennas, and one camera circuit at each of four locations: the Police Department, Noelridge Greenhouse, Cedar Rapids Public Library—Busse Branch, and Cedar Rapids Animal Care & Control. - Install ten sets of power and data cables at the Police Department. - Coordinate final equipment placement with City staff, obtain the construction permit (permit fees are waived by the City), and preserve existing roof warranties. - OEMs and manufacturers mentioned: Skydio is identified in reference material as the maker of the X10 drone system, but drone hardware is not part of the requested electrical purchase. Other manufacturers appearing in reference or as-built drawings are Prescolite, Stonco, Lithonia, Smith, Hubbell, and Luminii; those documents do not establish them as required makes for the installation work. - Reference-only equipment details: Skydio readiness material describes an X10 system with a drone, dock, external radio, and cloud organization. It notes power and network needs, including 100–240 V AC power (200–240 V at freezing sites). These are reference requirements, not a request to purchase Skydio equipment or services. - Notable scope distinction: As-built documents also list lighting fixtures and Luminii color-changing lighting alternatives. They appear in reference drawings and are not identified as separate items to be purchased under this electrical-installation solicitation. - Period of performance: Begins upon contract execution and runs through the stated contract term; extension is possible by written mutual agreement. No option years or annual subscription are specified.
