Professional Engineering Services for Electrical System and Joint Use Attachment Audit

The City of Dothan, Alabama, is seeking professional and technical engineering services to conduct a comprehensive field inventory and audit of its electrical system and joint use attachments. The agency needs to audit all pole attachments and electric system facilities connected to the utility's electric distribution poles to ensure accurate documentation and safety compliance. This project aims to resolve the lack of current, precise data regarding pole ownership, attachment counts, and potential structural or code violations across the utility network. The scope of work requires a physical inspection of each electric pole, including documenting the GPS location, pole identification number, pole owner, pole type, height, and classification. The selected contractor must also update pole inspection tags, document pole-mounted elements, verify or install phase labeling, and identify any code violations or structural deficiencies. Additionally, the inspection covers documenting the number, ownership, vertical position, type, and owner identification tags of all joint use attachments. Eligible bidders must be onshore organizations based in the United States. The agency is accepting digital proposal submissions via email or through their online portal. The agency has not disclosed a specific budget and is looking for proposals to determine the cost of the project.
