About this file

This is Amendment No. 1 to an Invitation for Bids (IW244381) issued by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) Contracts and Procurement Department for the supply and installation of HVAC units at the Allred Unit facility. The amendment extends the original bid opening date from May 22, 2026 at 3:00 PM to May 28, 2026 at 3:00 PM and provides clarifications to technical specifications based on bidder questions. Key clarifications include confirmation that microchannel coils are not acceptable per TDCJ specifications, staged compressors are permitted as alternatives to digital compressors, the unit operates as constant volume rather than variable air volume (VAV), the heater must meet the original specification of 293 MBTUH (not the 180 MBH noted in the model number), hot gas bypass is not required, and a site walk sign-in sheet has been provided to attendees. Bidders are required to acknowledge receipt of this amendment on the face of their bid or by returning a copy of the notice; failure to do so may result in bid disqualification.

The amendment does not address pricing terms, set-asides, funding sources, or other financial considerations, as its purpose is limited to extending the bid deadline and providing technical clarifications. All bidders must ensure compliance with the revised specifications and acknowledge receipt of Amendment No. 1 to maintain eligibility for consideration. The contact for this procurement is Avery Rogers, and all communications should reference Bid No. IW244381.
