Building H34780 HVAC Replacement-WSMR

Added: Sep 30, 2015 6:32 pm This contract action was accomplished using other than competitive procedures because a statute exists that expressly authorizes or requires that the acquisition be made from a specific source or through another agency (FAR 6.302-5); specifically, Sole source awards under the 8(a) Program. Per FAR 6.302-5 a J&A is not required for this award.

a.The Contractor shall develop a complete design to not only replace the existing 2 ton HVAC systems currently located on the North side of the computer building with two (2) new 6 ton HVAC systems, but to also provide ducting throughout the lab area, server area and conference rooms to provide adequate cooling and heating in the entire space. The design will include modification to the existing suspended ceiling and possible relocation of some light fixtures. (Our reason for selecting the 6 ton units is that the metal building has very little to no insulation on the exterior walls. The windows throughout the building are single pane plexi-glass with virtually no insulation factor).
