5. Reasons for Authority Cited:

-2-

Going sole source to American Legacy Construction (ALC) is in the best interest of the Government to prevent violating the current warranty on the HVAC system recently installed by ALC and reducing further time delays and issues caused by the system not having the bypass.

Alternatives:

None available due to the warranty on the recently installed HVAC unit installed by ALC. If anyone else performs any work associated with this unit, it will void the warranty on the recently installed HVAC unit.

Justification:

This contractor recently installed the new HVAC unit that needed an additional 2” bypass installed.

This needs to be performed by ALC so it doesn’t void the warranty on the new HVAC system recently installed.

Impact:

The HVAC system will continue to make noises while running and disrupting office personnel and customers. Also could cause issues with the piping and connections during vibrations.
