PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)

FOR

Bldg. 84 Chiller Replacement

1.0 General:

1.1 Scope: The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, tools, materials, supervision, and quality control necessary, except as specified in Paragraph 3.0 as Government Furnished, to perform the removal and disposal of the existing Air-Cooled Chiller and to install a new Air-Cooled Chiller, as defined in this PWS.

1.1.1 Objectives: To provide Bldg. 84 with proper cooling through the removal of the existing faulty system and installation of a new fully functional chiller system.

1.2 Background: The existing Arctic Cool chiller was commissioned in 2018. Around 2 years later, the original compressor went out. A replacement compressor was installed and only lasted a few months before also failing. The existing chiller is no longer operational, no longer under warranty and has no redundancy in compressors, which is a critical requirement for the desired replacement chiller system.

1.3 Period of Performance (PoP): The Period of Performance shall be 210 days

1.4 General Information:

1.4.1 Place and Performance of Services: The contractor shall provide services between the hours of 0700-1600 on Monday-Friday, except on recognized US holidays or when the Government facility/installation is closed due to local or national emergencies, administrative closings, or similar Government-directed facility/installation closings. Performance shall be at 1776 National Guard Way, Reno NV 89502 Building #84. The contractor shall at all times maintain an adequate work force for the uninterrupted performance of all tasks defined within this PWS when the Government facility/installation is not closed for the above reasons. When hiring personnel, the contractor shall keep in mind that the stability and continuity of the work force are essential.

1.4.1.1 Telework: The Government does not permit the contractor to telework in support of this requirement. In furtherance of Continuity of Operations Planning (COOP), a telework program may be enacted to ensure that the Government's mission-critical operations stay operational during times of national emergency or incidents of national significance. Telework shall be at no additional cost to the Government.

1.4.1.2 Unscheduled gate closures by the Security Police may occur at any time causing all personnel entering or exiting a closed installation to experience a delay. This cannot be predicted or prevented. Contractors are not compensated for unexpected closures or delays. Vehicles operated by contractor personnel are subject to search pursuant to applicable regulations. Any moving violation of any applicable motor vehicle regulation may result in the termination of the contractor employee’s installation driving privileges.

1.4.1.3 The contractor’s employees shall become familiar with and obey the regulations of the installation; including fire, traffic, safety and security regulations while on the installation. Contractor employees should only enter restricted areas when required to do so and only upon prior approval. All contractor employees shall carry proper identification with them at all times and shall be subject to such checks as may be deemed necessary. The contractor shall ensure compliance with all regulations and orders of the installation, which may affect performance. The Government reserves the right to direct the removal of an employee from Government property or revoke access to Government systems for misconduct, security reasons, or any overt evidence of communicable disease. Removal of contractor employees for reasons stated above does not relieve the Contractor from responsibility for total performance of this contract.
