EOHLC Project #004093 Boiler Replacement to ASHP

The Massachusetts Executive Office of Housing and Livable Communities (EOHLC) is seeking qualified contractors for Project #004093, which involves a comprehensive boiler system replacement with air source heat pumps and related electrical upgrades. The procurement focuses on removing the existing boiler infrastructure and installing new air source heat pumps and an electric water heater, with specific electrical work requirements including powering new plumbing and HVAC equipment and upgrading current electrical services. The contract opportunity was posted on November 19, 2025, with proposals due by December 19, 2025, providing potential bidders with a 30-day window to prepare and submit comprehensive responses. Contractors interested in this project must demonstrate technical expertise in HVAC systems, electrical infrastructure upgrades, and heating system replacement, with a likely emphasis on energy efficiency and modern mechanical system installation. While specific evaluation criteria are not detailed in the provided documentation, bidders can expect scrutiny of their technical capabilities, past performance, and ability to successfully complete complex mechanical and electrical retrofit projects.

The contract opportunity does not explicitly specify set-aside designations or restrictions on bidding organizations. However, given the nature of state-level procurement, there may be preferences for local contractors or those with demonstrated experience in municipal infrastructure projects. The project appears to be a standard infrastructure upgrade without indication of incumbent vendors or specific technology integration requirements. While no specific budget range is provided, similar municipal HVAC and electrical infrastructure projects typically range from $100,000 to $500,000, depending on the scale and complexity of the existing systems. Potential bidders should be prepared to demonstrate financial stability, appropriate licensing for HVAC and electrical work in Massachusetts, and a proven track record of successful mechanical system replacements in institutional or governmental settings.
