AB2024-14 - EQUIPMENT, MATERIALS AND LABOR FOR INSTALLATION OF HEARING INDUCTION LOOPS

The County of Mercer requests bids for the supplying of all equipment, materials and labor for installation of hearing induction loops at various Mercer County locations. With over 40 million Americans living with hearing loss, Mercer County recognizes the present need for accessible technology. Approximately 7.1% of our residents under 65 have a disability and nearly half of our older adult population experiences hearing loss.  Hearing induction loops allow people with hearing loss to participate in public spaces easily and discreetly by simply turning on the 't-coil' switch on their hearing aids and cochlear implants. To significantly advance our accessibility infrastructure, Mercer County proposes the installation of LOOP systems in key public locations. The Contractor shall provide all materials, labor, equipment, services, and perform all operations in connection with the work, in accordance with the specifications. All work shall comply with all local, state and federal regulations.
