Deputy Inspectors Services

The Tennessee Department of Commerce and Insurance, located in Nashville, Tennessee, requires deputy inspectors to conduct inspections of electrical installations. The agency needs to ensure all electrical work complies with applicable laws, rules, and instructions issued by the commissioner or designated agents. To solve the problem of delayed safety verifications, the agency requires all inspections to occur within three working days of receiving a request. The scope of work covers performing onsite electrical inspections and submitting detailed inspection reports directly to the commissioner or designated agents. Inspectors must maintain a current state electrical code inspector certification throughout the contract period. Additionally, inspectors must respond to relevant communications from the state and the general public within twenty-four hours unless the director grants an express excuse. Bidders must possess and maintain a properly functioning computer or tablet with Wi-Fi capabilities to access the state's online portal. The agency also requires bidders to maintain a cellular phone with at least 4G mobile capability for voicemail, texting, and emailing, alongside a functioning printer for electrical inspection reports. Eligibility is restricted to onshore entities within the United States who can perform the work onsite. The agency is looking for proposals to determine the budget and pricing structure for these services. Bidders must submit their responses digitally via email or through the designated online portal.
