The procurement seeks one replacement boiler for building 13 and one for building 70, with each unit requiring 400 MBH input and 400 MBH output capacity, featuring copper 2-pass heat exchangers rated at 160 psi, sealed combustion chambers, and direct vent capability. Evaluation will be based on lowest price technically acceptable criteria, with technical acceptability requiring submission of a detailed technical approach narrative addressing all Statement of Work aspects, three references from similar projects completed within the last three years, and past performance information demonstrating ability to meet contract requirements, quality of work, timeliness, and cost control. The deadline for submission of written questions to the Contracting Officer Josh Dobereiner is April 13, 2026 at 4:00 PM Pacific Daylight Time, and quotations are due April 24, 2026 at 1600 hours local time, with offerors required to hold prices firm for 90 calendar days from the offer due date.

This acquisition is designated as a Total Small Business Set-Aside with a NAICS code of 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors) and a small business size standard of $19.0 million. Site visit attendance records indicate that multiple contractors have expressed interest in the opportunity, including Johnson Controls, SH Mechanical, Bay City Boiler, CMI Boiler, KLAZVAN, Cal Boiler, and Valley Air Mechanical. The contract is anticipated as a firm fixed-price purchase order requiring performance bonds and payment bonds, with an expected contract period of performance from July 1, 2026 through September 30, 2026, though the contractor must begin performance within 10 calendar days of receiving the notice to proceed and complete all work by September 30, 2026.
