This is a CEA-approved Trane submittal documentation file related to a chiller replacement project solicited by Pinellas County School District in Florida. The District is accepting sealed electronic bids through its e-Procurement Portal at https://procurement.opengov.com/portal/PCSB, with bids due July 8, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time. The project involves chiller replacement with detailed permit specifications and drawings included in the bid package. A pre-bid meeting was held or scheduled prior to the submission deadline. Bidders must register through the OpenGov portal to receive automatic notification of addenda and question-and-answer responses. Addendum 1 (Revision) and an Oldsmar Electrical Services Addendum 1 were posted as of July 6, 2026. The District's e-Procurement Portal Clock serves as the official timekeeper, and no bids will be accepted after the deadline regardless of technical difficulties.

The solicitation requires bidders to comply with specified insurance requirements for contractors and be subject to the District's formal bid protest procedure. The District will give consideration to prices established through the State of Florida Department of Management Services, Division of Purchasing contracts and negotiated agreements, indicating potential price benchmarking opportunities. Bidders are strongly encouraged to submit responses well ahead of the 4:00 p.m. deadline and obtain all documents exclusively through the OpenGov portal to ensure receipt of all subsequent notifications and amendments. The CEA-approved Trane submittal documentation indicates pre-qualified equipment specifications for this replacement project.
