About this file

The document is a comprehensive set of technical specifications for the Orange County Senior Center and Innovation Lab project in Orlando, Florida, issued by Orange County Government. The project involves the construction of a new facility located at 7149 West Colonial Drive, with detailed engineering and design specifications spanning technical divisions 21 through 33. The specifications are dated July 03, 2024, and include extensive documentation for mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and building systems, with a total estimated project cost of approximately $14 million. Electronic bid submissions will be accepted through the OpenGov e-Procurement Platform until 4:00 pm EST on Tuesday, September 24, 2024, with a question submission deadline of Monday, August 12, 2024.

The specifications provide granular technical requirements for various building systems, including HVAC, plumbing, fire suppression, electrical, communications, and control systems. The documents outline detailed installation guidelines, equipment specifications, performance standards, testing protocols, and commissioning requirements. The project appears to be funded through Orange County Government, with a focus on creating a modern, technologically advanced senior center and innovation laboratory.
