Building 124 HVAC Project fund 1031

The Ohio Adjutant General's Department is seeking a contractor to complete the Building 124 HVAC Project at the 180th Air National Guard facility in Swanton, Ohio, involving the replacement and installation of two Hastings Make Up Air Units (MAUs) in Building 124. The project requires a comprehensive procurement and installation process, with contractors responsible for removing existing units, installing new U.S.-manufactured MAUs compatible with existing roofing flanges, reconnecting electrical and gas systems, and commissioning the new equipment. A mandatory site visit is scheduled for October 8, 2025, at 9:00 am, where potential bidders must inspect the facility and take measurements prior to submitting their proposal. The bid submission deadline is October 15, 2025, through the OhioBuys online platform, with quotes remaining valid for 60 days from the submission date. Evaluation criteria will focus on identifying the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, considering factors such as experience, financial condition, management skills, and ability to execute the contract properly. Contractors must provide comprehensive documentation, including an Environmental Work Plan, liability insurance, and various compliance certifications.

The procurement opportunity includes potential set-asides and preferences for minority, veteran, and women-owned businesses (MBE, VBE, WBE), with strict restrictions on offshore service procurement and investments in Russian institutions. Bidders must complete an Affirmative Action Program Verification Form and provide a Secretary of State Charter/Registration Number, Current BWC Certification, and applicable enterprise certifications. While a specific budget range is not explicitly stated, the project's funding is contingent on appropriations from the Ohio General Assembly and potential cooperative agreements through the National Guard Bureau. The contract requires integration with the base's existing Johnson Controls (JCI) direct digital control (DDC) system and includes a one-year warranty period. Contractors must adhere to comprehensive environmental procedures, including waste management, spill prevention, and protection of natural resources, with close coordination required with the OHARNG Environmental Office throughout project execution.
