About this file
The file is a comprehensive technical specification document for a Chiller, Air Handling Units, and Building Management System (BMS) Replacement project for the Brevard County Medical Examiner's Office, located in Rockledge, Florida. The project involves furnishing and installing new HVAC infrastructure, including chillers, pumps, air handling units, fans, and a web-based Direct Digital Control (DDC) system. The bid is scheduled to be opened on Wednesday, May 21, 2025, at 10:00 AM, with a non-mandatory pre-bid meeting on Wednesday, May 7, 2025, at 9:00 AM. The contract period is 210 days from the Notice to Proceed to Substantial Completion, with an additional 30 days for Final Completion, and work must be performed during non-business hours to ensure continuous operation of the Medical Examiner's facility.
The engineer's estimated base bid is $763,000, with a potential optional add-on for pre-AHU install air duct cleaning. Contractors must submit a 5% bid bond and may be required to provide a performance bond. The successful contractor must provide a full-time superintendent, conduct a minimum of 8 hours of training on the new DDC system, and maintain comprehensive insurance coverage. The project requires careful work around critical infrastructure, with a specific emphasis on maintaining the operational status of freezers and refrigerators storing deceased individuals throughout the renovation. Brevard County will cover county-specific permit and inspection fees, while the contractor is responsible for fees from other agencies. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive base bid, with the potential additive option to be included at the County's discretion.
