About this file

This document is Addendum No. 2 for a public works bid issued by the University of Louisiana at Lafayette's Purchasing Office for the NIRC Building 34 Air Handling Unit and Controls Replacement project. The solicitation (No. 25204) seeks a contractor to provide all labor, materials, equipment, and services necessary for replacing air handling units and controls, with bids due on May 1, 2025, at 10:00 AM. The addendum modifies original specifications, including medical requirements for contractors, establishing working hours from 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday to Friday, and requiring 7-day advance coordination for after-hours and weekend work. Specific technical modifications include replacing existing chilled water supply and return valves, providing a new drain pan for the air handling unit, and adding a reheat coil schedule that requires the Test and Balance Contractor to balance existing reheat coils.

The addendum provides critical details for bidders, such as requiring contractors to submit TB and Measles information at their own expense and specifying that all project-related questions must be submitted via email to BidQuestions@louisiana.edu. The document emphasizes that this is a public works bid and that the addendum must be acknowledged on the bid form when submitted. While no specific budget is mentioned, the technical specifications suggest a complex HVAC system upgrade involving precise mechanical and control system modifications. Contractors will need to demonstrate technical expertise in replacing valves, adjusting drain pans, and coordinating with the owner for system shutdowns and drainage requirements.
