Addendum-4_08.17.26.pdf

This is Addendum 4 to an Invitation for Bid (IFB #121-071426JA) issued by Rowan-Cabarrus Community College in Concord, North Carolina for South Campus HVAC Upgrades. The addendum, issued August 17, 2026, serves to clarify and revise information from the original Notice to Bid posted July 14, 2026. The primary change documented in this addendum is a modification to the bid receipt deadline, which has been extended from Tuesday, August 18, 2026 at 2:00 PM to Thursday, September 10, 2026 at 2:00 PM. All bidders are required to acknowledge receipt of this addendum and note it on their bid forms, though the addendum itself does not need to be returned with bid documents. The project involves replacing two aging chillers (31 and 24 years old) with a modular three-unit 80-ton chiller system, replacing original air handling units in buildings S201 and S202, converting pneumatic controls to direct digital controls, and upgrading the Building Automation System software.

The bid opening will occur via Zoom immediately following the new September 10, 2026 deadline, with meeting details and join instructions provided in the addendum. All trade contractor bidders are responsible for ensuring their subcontractors and vendors are informed of the addendum contents. The information contained in this addendum supersedes any conflicting information in the original bid documents. Bids are required on a single prime, lump sum basis with a bid bond equal to 5% of the total bid amount. Mechanical contractors must comply with North Carolina General Statutes Chapter 87, Articles 2 and 4, and possess proper state licenses. All bidders must complete the Identification of Minority Business Participation form with either Affidavit A or B, with failure to complete these forms resulting in bid rejection. Payment will be made on 95% of monthly estimates with final payment upon completion and acceptance, and no bid may be withdrawn for 60 days after the scheduled closing time.
