About this file

This Addendum #1 to RFP-27-047 issued by the Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind (FSDB) Purchasing Department in St. Augustine, Florida, provides corrections and clarifications to the HVAC Control Upgrades (Phase II) solicitation. The project scope encompasses furnishing materials, equipment, and labor to upgrade HVAC control systems in four buildings: Settles Gymnasium (Building #17), Gibbs Hall (Building #32), Copeland Gymnasium (Building #64), and Pope Hall (Building #67). Work includes installation of temperature, humidity, occupancy, and air quality sensors; controllers and actuators; user interfaces and control dashboards; communication networks; replacement of control panel enclosures, transformers, power supplies, and actuators; and system commissioning with test and balance services. Installed systems must be either Niagara or Honeywell. Pre-bid qualification responses are due December 9, 2026, at 1:45 PM, with qualification results posted December 10, 2026, at 4:00 PM. Vendors with deficiencies have until December 15, 2026, at 2:00 PM to resubmit corrections. A mandatory pre-response meeting and site visit for qualified vendors is scheduled for December 31, 2026, at 10:00 AM at the FSDB campus. Phase Two proposal submissions are due January 13, 2027, at 1:45 PM, with bid opening at 2:00 PM the same day. The estimated contract start date is February 11, 2027.

Pre-bid qualification requirements mandate that bidders register in MyFloridaMarketplace (MFMP) Vendor Information Portal with valid W-9 status, hold valid current Florida licenses as required by Chapter 489 of Florida Statutes, and submit at least three references from clients within the past three years including project details and contact information. Pre-qualified vendors must post a bid bond or equivalent security of 5 percent of the bid amount, with a 100 percent payment and performance bond required before contract execution. The addendum clarifies that vendors must submit complete pre-qualification responses for each solicitation individually, even if elements were previously submitted for other solicitations. All procedural questions must be submitted by email to the Purchasing Department by the stated deadlines, with answers issued as addenda according to the published timeline. Respondents are responsible for monitoring the FSDB website for all amendments and addenda, as noncompliance may result in proposal rejection.
