Electrical and automation services for 12 Wärtsilä generating units

The City of Denton is seeking a service provider to support electrical and automation systems for its Wärtsilä generating units at the Denton Energy Center. - Government buyer: City of Denton, through Denton Municipal Electric (DME); the work is for the Denton Energy Center, with the Purchasing office involved in the solicitation. - OEM: Wärtsilä is the named manufacturer. The equipment is described as 12 Wärtsilä 18V50SG units and, elsewhere, Wartsila W50SG-B units. - Requested services: Corrective and preventive electrical and automation repairs, replacement work, PLC programming, hardware installation, commissioning, testing, maintenance, and parts support. The scope also includes 24/7 remote support; inspections and troubleshooting of engine-control, safety shutdown, and emissions-control systems; and emergency repairs. - Quantity and parts: Services support 12 generating units. No specific parts, materials, part numbers, or parts quantities are identified; the contractor is expected to source repair materials as needed. - Service-provider requirements: The provider must be an OEM-approved distributor for supplied products and authorized to sell them to the City. Work must not void existing OEM warranties, and services must include at least a one-year warranty. The solicitation calls for a service offer within one week of notice and generally expects repairs to be completed within five weeks of evaluation; emergency work is prioritized by response time and ability to perform. - Pricing and evaluation: Pricing categories include regular and overtime labor, project travel and accommodations, and a markup on parts and materials. Proposals are evaluated on schedule, technical compliance and quality, probable performance, and total cost. - Term: One-year initial term, with renewal language that inconsistently describes two or four additional one-year periods; the City may also extend the contract by up to six months.
