Lewis West Substation Service

The City of Mesa awarded a $67,000 contract to Reinhauser Manufacturing, Inc. for maintenance and repair services at the Lewis West Substation. The procurement was conducted as a sole‑source award after a 7‑day public notice period allowed other vendors to submit competing bids, which none did. This modest‑sized contract covers tap‑changer inspection, oil change‑out, and any necessary repair parts for the substation’s high‑voltage equipment. • Scope: Substation/high‑voltage electrical maintenance, including inspection, oil change‑out, and provision of repair parts. • Procurement method: Sole‑source intent‑to‑award followed by formal award, reflecting the agency’s belief that only one vendor could meet the technical requirements. • Financials: Fixed‑price contract valued at $67,000, indicating a lump‑sum arrangement for the defined services.
