Final completion and closeout is due by December 1, 2026.
Payment for services shall be due only after the services are completed to the Town's satisfaction.
A minimum two-year warranty on installation workmanship and ancillary materials is required. OEM warranties per ChargePoint apply.
The award will be based on the responsive, responsible proposer whose proposal is most advantageous to the Town, considering technical approach, experience, schedule, price, DBE participation, compliance, safety, and QA/QC.
Proposals must include firm qualifications with relevant EV/transit DCFC experience, project team details, approach and methodology, schedule, price proposal, compliance and certifications, DBE participation plan, exceptions/clarifications, and insurance and bonding evidence.
The document details various federal requirements and potential penalties for non-compliance, including those related to debarment, suspension, and program fraud.
