IFB-0000000001 - Medium Voltage Transformers Backup Equipment

The University of Colorado Boulder (University) is requesting sealed proposals from a qualified sales distributor to provide medium voltage transformers in order to maintain safe and reliable electrical building operation in case of unplanned transformer replacement. The University owns and operates the electrical medium voltage distribution for the campus. The University’s Utility Department is responsible for the transformer replacement in case of malfunction or failure of the equipment. The current estimated delivery of a new transformer is now over 118 weeks, and the University needs to be prepared in case of an unscheduled replacement. The goal of this project is to be proactive by purchasing Cooper/Eaton transformers which are used in 80% of the University’s electrical infrastructure.
