Transfer switches and generator connections
Isolated power and patient care area grounding
Infection-control HVAC with ICRA barriers and negative air

Working in occupied facilities
We follow the facility’s ICRA and ILSM plans, coordinate shutdowns with facilities staff, maintain negative pressure and dust control, and keep egress paths clear. Crews are briefed on hospital protocols before mobilization.
What is your bonding capacity for healthcare projects?
Our single-project and aggregate bonding capacity is [BONDING CAPACITY], provided through our surety on request. Ask for a bonding letter with your bid invitation and we will send it with our prequalification packet. We confirm bond requirements for each healthcare project before submitting a number.
How large are your crews for healthcare work?
Our field crew size is [CREW SIZE], led by licensed electricians and HVAC technicians on our own payroll. We staff each healthcare project to the schedule in the bid documents and tell you upfront if a manpower requirement exceeds what we can commit, rather than overpromising during bidding.
How fast can you turn around a healthcare bid?
Send the plans, specifications, addenda and bid date through email or BuildingConnected. We confirm within 48 hours whether we will bid and flag scope questions early. Turnaround depends on project size and documents, and we tell you immediately if the bid date is too tight to price accurately.
Are you union or open shop for healthcare projects?
GridWise Energy is [UNION / OPEN SHOP]. Tell us about any project labor agreement, prevailing wage or certified payroll requirements in your bid invitation, and we will confirm how we meet them before submitting pricing for the healthcare scope, so there are no surprises after award.
Do your crews follow ICRA requirements?
Yes. We work to the facility’s infection control risk assessment, installing and maintaining barriers, negative air machines, sticky mats and dust control appropriate to the ICRA class. Crews are trained on hospital protocols before mobilization, and we coordinate inspections of containment with the facility’s infection prevention team.
How do you handle shutdowns in an operating hospital?
We plan every shutdown with facilities staff in advance, identify affected rooms and equipment, confirm temporary power or alternate feeds, and follow the hospital’s outage approval process. Work on the essential electrical system follows NFPA 99 and NEC 517 so life safety and critical branches stay protected.
What prequalification documents can you provide for healthcare bids?
We provide a prequalification packet with our W-9, certificate of insurance, Tennessee electrical license TN77232 BC/CE, HVAC license 744451, safety manual, EMR letter ([EMR]) and bonding letter. Documents not yet uploaded are available by request at bids@gridwiseenergy.ai. We complete GC-specific prequalification forms as well.
