About this opportunity

The Pinellas County School District is soliciting sealed electronic bids for a comprehensive Chiller Replacement project at Palm Harbor University High School. The procurement involves demolishing existing water-cooled and air-cooled chillers, pumps, cooling tower fill, expansion tanks, and air separators, and replacing them with three new water-cooled chillers, one air-cooled chiller, seven new pumps, three expansion tanks, two air separators, and a refrigerant detection system. Bidders must demonstrate five years of continuous business experience, provide detailed documentation including business and key personnel resumes, and prove E-Verify compliance. The mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for May 9, 2025, at 11:00 am, with electronic bids due by 3:00 pm on May 23, 2025, through the District's OpenGov Procurement portal. The contract is an all-or-none bid with a 150-day completion timeline, commencing upon the Notice of Commencement. Contractors must be licensed Florida Mechanical Contractors and have completed at least five similar chiller replacement projects within the past five years.

The solicitation does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The estimated contract value is approximately $750,000, excluding potential renewal options. Bidders must provide comprehensive insurance documentation, with policies requiring specific coverage limits ranging from $1,000,000 to $5,000,000 depending on project size, and must list the School Board of Pinellas County as an "Additional Insured" and "Certificate Holder." Insurance companies must maintain a Best's Financial Strength Rating of "A-V" or better. The project includes a $25,000 contingency for unforeseen circumstances, which requires detailed documentation for expenditures. Contractors must coordinate closely with school operations, minimizing disruptions and working around academic schedules. The new chiller system will incorporate variable speed screw chillers using R-513A refrigerant, with a focus on energy efficiency, system reliability, and providing redundant cooling capacity for the school's infrastructure.
