About this file

This document is a comprehensive project manual for the Orange County Administration Building Lighting Upgrades, prepared by SGM Engineering in Orlando, Florida. The project involves replacing interior lighting throughout the administration building with LED replacements and occupancy sensor controls. The sealed bid response is due on Thursday, July 7, 2022, at 4:00 pm EST, with an estimated project cost of $1,098,000.00. The project requires electronic submission through the OpenGov e-Procurement Platform, with no alternative submission methods permitted. Work is to be performed inside the existing building during normal business hours of 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, with potential weekend work coordinated with the Owner to minimize disruption.

The project specifications detail extensive requirements for electrical work, including specific guidelines for conduit installation, grounding, conductor specifications, and identification protocols. The contract will be a lump sum construction contract, with the Owner occupying the building throughout the construction period. Contractors must coordinate carefully to maintain existing building operations and protect building occupants during construction. The project manual includes detailed technical specifications covering electrical systems, including requirements for lighting fixtures, ballasts, emergency lighting, and control devices. The work will require careful coordination with existing building systems and minimal disruption to ongoing administrative operations.
