Recent solicitations show a broad mix of work: routine seasonal inspections and filter changes; emergency and 24/7 repair response; equipment replacement including air handling units, rooftop packaged units, and chillers; building automation system integration; water treatment for cooling towers and chilled-water circuits; and design-build or construction-management services for system upgrades. Issuing bodies include state departments and universities (Texas A&M, Fort Valley State, Texas Juvenile Justice Department, Texas Health and Human Services Commission), county governments (Volusia County, DeKalb County Schools, Orange County Florida Utilities, Columbia County Georgia, Henry County Georgia, Pinellas County Schools), city governments (Detroit, Phoenix, Port Wentworth, Lubbock, Santa Monica, New Haven, Tucson, Augusta), school districts (Angelo State University, Homer Community Schools, Cartwright Schools, Klein ISD, Valencia College), and special-purpose authorities (Kissimmee Utility Authority, Houston Airport System, Orange County Convention Center).
